Garden and other plans

Category: My Garden Adventures | Posted: Wed Aug 26, 2009 3:58 pm

I am starting some new seeds in coffee filters. Oregano, Chives, lavender, and Chamomile. This should help me know for sure what plants are actually growing. It is supposed to help them to germinate quicker too.

We are currently having a nice rain outside. It seems to rain every few days here in Overland, Park. The temperature for the next week will be in the 70's. Since I am planning on bringing my herbs inside when the cold weather hits, I think I should be able to plant my seeds anytime. Hopefully they won't care. I knew I would make some mistakes on my first attempt at growing herbs but I am still a little disappointed in my progress. I do believe that I will have a great herb garden by next year though.

I also plan to make some fermented sauerkraut. I have never made that before so I hope I do well. I will start with a 2 and 1/2 gal container. That way I won't be too upset if I mess up. I want to make some homemade yogurt also.

Good luck in your endeavours Tigercat. Do let us know how the herb growing, sauerkraut and yoghurt turn out won't you?

A herb garden is really nice to have, and useful as well. I like the aroma in that kind of garden :)

With your own herbs and fresh, homemade yogurt, you'll be all set for cooking! Herbs are not that hard to grow, as long as they stay warm, get lots of sun and don't get soggy or cramped. I used to make yogurt. You can get a yogurt maker from Territorial Seeds (or is it Pinetree?), or just use the oven.
