So I broke down and opened a Harvest that has been sitting under my desk for forever. I THINK this is the one I gave my daughter and her BF for xmas last year that they wanted but then after they got it said they would never use  .
Anyway, I have it set up. I took the Cilantro from both the Bounty and the Twineys and put them in here. I also took the Rosemary (which has a root coming out of the seed) from the Bounty and placed it in here. I also planted two pods of Oregano and one of Thyme.
The two Cilantros are over the label.
More when the others start to germinate of the Cilantro go wild.

So exciting that even your rosemary sprouted! They’re all on their way.  |

I trimmed the cilantro down yesterday. The Thyme has been trimmed a couple times as well. The Rosemary is growing ever so slowly but nicely. The oregano is also coming along.  |

I think I need to remove one of the Cilantro's and move the Thyme to that space. This will give my Rosemary more light and room. The Oregano is growing really nice with huge leaves. Other brands I planted had small leaves.  |

Cilantro has been removed and totally harvested. The runt of the two Oregano was also removed. This now holds a Thyme, Rosemary, Piccolino Greek Basil and Oregano.
It was getting too crowded so now these have room to breath and grow.

I admire you gals and guys who cook and use the herbs. Basil is about it for me. I have a big rosemary plant that I can't kill(soil) and use it occaisionally for chicken..but it is mainly on the sun porch to repel spiders ...LOL they can't stand the smell and it works like a charm. Your herbs are great, Shawn.

Thank you!
I did not know that about Rosemary, good to know. I hate spiders. As for the rest of the herbs, I only grow a handful of types as I only use a few kinds. But I love watching what others grow and it gives me inspiration for future projects.

I'm always looking for ways to add different and new herbs to my cooking.
Fun fact: Spiders also hate Eucalyptus, so I tend to hang some dried in the house. Good to know about Rosemary since I was planning on growing some anyway.

Darn, again I forgot to take a picture first. This morning I trimmed up the oregano and the thyme. I have so much thyme now I will not have to grow this for a while. Plus I still have a lot left on the plant to grow. My Rosemary is coming along really nice as is the Piccolino Basil Here is the garden after the prune  |
