Growing herbs

I started growing herbs when the price of basil shot up to $5 at the markets. That's just ridiculous. After all, it does grow like a parasite in a sunny spot with some good soil.


I started growing my herbs from seeds but you can start with a juvenile plant.


In a sunny spot by on the kitchen window sill the seeds kept sprouting, and sprouting. Here, I'm transplanting them into individual pots made from recycled aluminum cans with holes punches in the bottom for drainage.


Now, they should start growing faster with less root and light competition.


The parsley plants are growing just as well.

With a little TLC and clean water, I'll have my own herbs in no time.
