Hi  I'm a newbie exploring the different parts of the forum and practicing my posting skills  Currently, I am growing Chives (still germinating), Thai Basil & Genovese Basil  I am also growing earth (soil) babies - Basil and Cilantro (rescued from the grocery store) in my kitchen window:   |

I also love the potted rescues.
I have a pot of green onions grown from the ends of store bought ones hidden behing the flowers in my window.
Isn't it exciting? Every new plant is a thrill!

Yes. I just love watching everything grow 💕 and pinching off leaves to cook with!! The Aerogarden has put it all into a new perspective |

Yay, chives! I love their slender leaves... and being able to snip them fresh anytime at all!

I grow, chop and freeze them so I have on hand when I can't use them fresh. But they are still fresh, just frozen fresh

I think chives are beautiful. I actually have chives growing in a pot behind some flowers -- because their strappy leaves add a nice structural element.

I have cleared out the bounty and started a new Genovese Basil that will eventually go to kratky. The grow dome is still on and I see the first hint of green from deep down in the sponge   |
