Grow this

[ken5050]

Good idea for a thread..I've long grown my own herbs.....though the deer population here makes a garden impossible..unless I want a small scale version of Camp X-ray in my yard......

I eagerly await the discussion on composting...

Are you going to maintain a "ping" list?
If so, add me please.

You're going to cook with this??

After all these years I have finally decided to try to grow a few herbs.

Looking forward to the Victory Garden!

Please put me on the ping list too.

It was in the low eighties last week so I figured that it was safe to put my little herb/flower/berry garden out on the patio.
It snowed yesterday and last night. Thank heavens for grow lights or I would have no plants at all.

Basil: Everyone's favorite herb.

And one of my favorite freepers!

How nice of you to start with my favorite herb!!! I love this idea, so keep me on your ping list, please.

I also have a severe deer problem, so will be looking forward to hearing the solutions that Freepers have found. I have to grow my basil in a pot on our upper deck. Seems to be one of the few places the deer can't reach--LOL!

Fintan ... could you please put me on your *ping* list?! I have only lately sold my landscaping business ... and I would surely enjoy the conversation here!

With the spring here, and planting fever burning in my brain, I find the idea for this thread to be a wonderful idea...and growing herbs and having recepies for the use of different herbs is a special treat...

Please add me to any ping list concerning this thread...

I was so excited seeing this topic, that I have not as yet read the posts...so need to go back and do that...

I am especially interested in growing herbs in containers..and also will be especially interested to see if 'catnip' will be an herb which is discussed...my kitty loves catnip, so I thought he would enjoy having a few special catnip plants, placed at strategic places around the house...

This is great fun....

I've been growing my own vegetables for many years, although I've never grown herbs. I would like to try it.
There's just nothing like walking out to the garden and picking peas or green beans and eating them right then and there! I will definately give the Basil and Tomato Bruschetta a try.
Thank you for starting this thread. Would you please add my name to your ping list ?

Please add me to your ping list.

In anticipation of Racing Day, we have our mint ready.

Herbs rule! What a super idea Fin ... when I lived on the Farm, I grew 45 - 50 kinds. A kitchen door herb garden is so easy and handy! Once you've had one, you'll never want to be without!

We have on board the forum one of the most outstanding and knowledgeable purveyors of gardening seed in the country ... might I say the world. He is too modest, of course, to tell us that ... I'm sure he would be happy to field questions for FReepers ... he has NOTHING else to do all day, right Lone?

Fin ... you have FReepmail ... &;-)

Please add me to the ping list.

Thanks for the Bruschetta recipe. I tried some from Trader Joe's and it was very good. I wanted to try to make some myself so it would be REALLY fresh!
