Yeah I like watching things grow too, Alex!

JaNan, things are looking really great for you. Mint is slow to get going at first when grown from seed, and it's tiny & fragile, but in a couple weeks when the roots really get going...look out!

Be sure JaNan, to thin them later, and to only keep one mint seedling, or the roots will overtake the entire system!!!

I'm leery about growing mint in my aero-garden and if it seems like it's interferring, it'll be yanked out of there and put in a pot! I won't allow my peppers to be choked!

We'll see how it goes...

No strawberry sprouts yet. Now that I sowed some fresher ones though I'm hoping for at least one sprout...

Congrats on your stuff, JaNan. You Marble & Purple Basil seedlings look great.

Oh and last night I sowed some Violetta Italian purple basil and some micro tomato seeds as well for fun. I want to see how fast fresh tomato seeds pop in the A~G. Plus Micro Toms are small enough to grow in my unit, so I may let one plant stay. Whatever performs best will stay.
