It might sound boring to you but Gardening is actually really fun! :D<br>I started growing some stuff indoors and I'll transplant it later once it's warmer outside. Here's some of the stuff that's growing! <br><br>These are from last Monday or Tuesday. I don't remember. :P<br><br>Dill<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056781.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056781.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>(Top left) Straight Eight Cucumber, (Next three from top going down) Boston Pickling Cucumber, (Bottom) Kohlrabi, (Very top right) Dill, the other one is a weed.

Not sure what happened. :-/<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056784.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056784.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>The healthiest of the Boston Pickling Cucumbers<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056785.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056785.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>Yay for Dill! The actual leaves are sprouting up now! (Which you can't see in this picture).<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056786.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056786.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>Lots of Kohlrabi<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056787.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056787.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>Oregano<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056788.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056788.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>Newly planted on Sunday and Monday. :D<br>From the left: <span style="font-weight:bold">Nasturtiums</span> (5), <span style="font-weight:bold">Spearmint</span> (5), <span style="font-weight:bold">Peppermint </span>(5), <span style="font-weight:bold">Sweet Basil</span> (5), Then the <span style="font-weight:bold">Common Chives</span> (6) go down the fifth row and on the bottom of the sixth, <span style="font-weight:bold">Straight Eight Cucumbers</span> (5) in the sixth row (which is followed by that sixth Chives), then <span style="font-weight:bold">Sugar Baby Watermelon</span> (3) in the seventh row in the first three pots, then the bottom two pots of the seventh row are <span style="font-weight:bold">Asters</span> (2). The very bottom right one is a "Control" which is nothing but the soil to see what weeds come up so I can compare it to the rest of the soil pots.<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056789.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056789.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>My poor Sunflowers, which the remaining 4 have been moved to bigger pots.<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056790.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056790.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>I actually moved them into towel paper tubes cut in half first, then I moved them to bigger pots. Also some cucumber there. :P<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056792.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056792.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>Sunflowers and some newly planted <span style="font-weight:bold">Parsley</span>!<br><img src="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056794.jpg"; alt="http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j117/CoolBozPup14/2009/Garden/PrePotted2/P5056794.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br><br>I'll post newer pictures later. Some of the "newly" planted stuff is starting to come up and the sunflowers are growing big and strong! And some of the Parsley I planted a month ago (which is not in the pictures above) is coming up! <br><br>It's really exciting seeing all your little seeds grow to seedlings and beyond! :D<br><br>Oh and all of my stuff I'm planting is stuff the rabbits can eat. XD The cucumbers and Kohlrabi are actually my dads though (but thought I'd try pre-growing some). The sunflowers are more for my gerbils. Yay for home-grown sunflower seeds! :D

  • xD I love doing gardens. But since i hate fruits and vegitables (Im a bad child xD) my 5 year old neice and i plant flowers. Right now we have some merigolds and some other kinds of pink flower i cant pronounce xD
  • xDD <br>I got three flowers; Nasturtiums, Asters and Sunflowers. All are okay for rabbits to eat so that's why I have them. ;P<br><br>If you have room, plant some sunflowers. They are fun to grow! Though I've never grown them before (this is my first year gardening) but so far they are fun! xD
    Please PM if I win.

  • <span style="font-size:75">Ooh! I used to garden a lot. Then I gave up because pedestrians seem to think our yard is a trash bin. :/ But I grew a few cucumbers and some squash. c: It was fun.</span>
