A Delicious Discovery

I just discovered some oregano growing in my backyard flower garden. Apparently it was planted there years ago, and somehow has survived. So now I've got oregano and cilantro. I'm going to need some more herbs for a proper herb garden!

Tomato Growth, Cilantro Doing Well

I'm just checking in to report the progress of the plants. Here you can see the tomatoes are all doing quite well. I'm pleased with the quality of those Burpee seeds. I think every single one I planted is growing and looking good. Still planning to get some large pots. Let's take a look at the cilantro.

It's doing very well, now that I've been leaving it out in the sun all day. I bring both the tomatoes and cilantro in at night, because it still gets cold. The cilantro is growing a bit strangely, due to the problem I reported earlier. You can't tell from the picture, but the stems are all laying down sideways and some offshoots are growing up from them. I guess it's going to turn out okay.

Cilantro Overcrowding

My cilantro pot is suffering from two problems. One, overcrowding. I planted too many seeds in there! Two is a little trickier. Because it's still quite cool outside, I've kept the pot sitting by a window indoors. But cilantro apparently loves sunlight. All of the little sprouts have been bending and stretching toward the light, and now they look like they'll never be able to stand up straight and grow properly. I've started putting the pot out on the deck during the day so they get good light, now that it's gotten a little warmer.
