Here's my favorite basil-on-a-budget trick. I buy a pot of little basil plants at Wegmans (about $1.99). I saturate the soil and carefully cut the mass of plants into about 6-8 pieces. From these pieces you can carefully tease out the roots of many little plants. Last year I filled 2 big pots with basil plants using this method. Dontcha just love a bargain?

In order to have vegetables produce in that time, we have to start seeds early so the plants have time to mature outdoors. <BR/><BR/>I will need to plant pepper seeds indoors about the middle of March.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07472642679947517392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31428116.post-10974551424476017292009-02-04T10:41:00.000-05:002009-02-04T10:41:00.000-05:00We never plant indoors - everything's goes straigh...We never plant indoors - everything's goes straight out here and since I grow in containers, I sow them whenever I feel like!Chandramouli Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06532146969497878220noreply@blogger.com
