Parsley, Oregano, Cilantro and Thyme

thanksgiving herbs I gathered a bouquet of fresh herbs from my garden for Thanksgiving. To keep them fresh, I place them in a glass of water in the fridge. I grew the parsley, cilantro and thyme from seed.

Growing basil and thyme indoors

This has been the year of the slug and snails in my garden, unfortunately. Dealing with the slugs and snails without a doubt unleashed my inner gladiator. It was my morning ritual to hunt and destroy as many slugs and snails I could find. Ugh.  As a result, I've resorted to starting and growing all of my seedlings at home on the window sill. It's not the ideal place since it doesn't get a full day's worth of sun. But the sill faces southeast, and it is rather nice and warm.

The basil and thyme were grown from seed, begun in a larger pot and then transplanted to a recycled six pack. I'm afraid the thyme looks a bit etiolated. They will likely go to the battlefields soon when they gain enough heft.

Thyme in the window

Grown from seed in the window, a few thyme seedlings straggle. I haven't much luck with herbs in general so I'm happy to see them still growing. I think it's time to repot them.
Oh and the larger one in the back is a pepper, the only one that germinated of the batch.
