Failure...new start
Only the one Thyme seed germinated in the Thyme pod and it shriveled up after a couple of days.
A few basil sprouted but they too perished.
Yesterday I plucked everything out and restarted with park peat plugs. Planed the same varieties...
I also started Broccoli on the windowsill this week.

Signs of Life!
I'm thinking I probably shouldn't have planted seeds that are tough to start for my first venture into Aerogardening...I'm so anxious for them to grow. Of the six varieties I've planted, I know that lavender, pomegranate and the passiflora aren't ever in a rush to get going..that just leaves three pods to watch expectantly...today I was rewarded...the creeping thyme has germinated!
So at 5 days we have one pod with life...creeping thyme...picture follows:
I think I can see some basil coming up too!
