A few days ago Jeannette and I started planting our container garden. Already we've filled much of the available space and seen several signs of growth.
Much to our surprise, our dollar store tomato start kit seems to be working wonderfully. Within just a few days quite a number of the seeds sprouted and have continued to look quite promising.
We also seen a few of our herbs doing quite well. The thyme and chives looks particularly good, though their small pots might make this look easy.
And while the beans haven't yet wowed us, the limited signs of growth are encouraging. Of course, a few more signs of growth wouldn't be bad.
Interestingly, the most impressive growth has come from wheat seeds I bought almost as a joke.
Maybe if we're lucky we'll get enough for a small loaf of bread, or maybe just enough to add a whole wheat element to professionally processed flour.
