I wonder if that's why it's so hard to find basil seedlings?KandNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08982514439893158594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227035454795543935.post-22905932506717387752009-06-27T20:07:45.176-07:002009-06-27T20:07:45.176-07:00IMpatient... *sigh*IMpatient... *sigh*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227035454795543935.post-4897909033203242542009-06-27T20:07:00.309-07:002009-06-27T20:07:00.309-07:00Hey Auntie:

Last year I was inpatient and bought a few starter plants to set out whilst I waited for my seeds to come up... Well, the plants from seed caught up and HUGELY surpassed the others. I don't bother with plants any more...straight into the ground with seed Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227035454795543935.post-88550550992529178732009-06-17T07:45:20.806-07:002009-06-17T07:45:20.806-07:00SM, Did you plant your basil from seed or plants?
...SM, Did you plant your basil from seed or plants?<br />Yes, our mint is going crazy, too.

We planted them early so they had a cold night or two. The ones that are going right now seem to be doing really well.

And two years in a row?

I think it's the lack of consecutive sunny days so far this spring. Let's cross our fingers for some warm summer weather soon!smchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830513576764384087noreply@blogger.com
