Thyme for Thinning...hehe

The past week I've been occupied by our basement, it's coming along nicely and it's finally time to paint...now that all the drywall dust is gone. As for my plants, all appears to be well. I finally reached the point where I had to thin the thyme. I thought I did a good job at only sowing a few seeds per peat pellet, apparently I overestimated my accuracy, but now they have some more room. I thinned to 2 to 3 per peat pellet which should give me more than enough thyme for fresh eating and drying.


My sweet peas have taken off, now I see how they like to vine out...I'm going to have to transplant them soon and give them something to climb. Hopefully the spring like weather sticks around for good so I can get an early start to outdoor planting. The broccoli and kale are doing well, some good growth going and they are staying nice and stocky. This weekend I will be planting some parsley, rosemary, and purple coneflower.


The bulbs are doing great, three daffodils have bloomed and the grape hyacinth is still going. Some of the tulips are starting to come up too which is exciting!!!
