Herb Garden Revisited

Update – The wingtacular has been moved up to May 16th.  We still have three more open spots. Click here to learn about the wingtacular.

A couple of weeks ago I planted 12 varieties of herbs and peppers in a self-watering seed starter that I purchased at Lowes.  You can find the link here. The whole thing went south when the self-watering indoor green house got a case of mold.  The mold covered all of the plants except for the pepper plants and the basil.  So needless to say, I have to start all over again.  I would not recommend the self watering green house starter as it pretty much sucks. 

The only survivors were the chili pepper plants.

The basil, habenero and jalapenos also survived.

Overall I lost 61 plants to the mold from the crappy setup.  I am not sure where the mold came from.  It started growing almost instantly and covered the starter pods before the herbs even started growing.  I had to replant the rest of the herbs.  Luckily I had a bunch of extra seeds.  I sure hope that they grow.  I really want to start using fresh herbs. 

Hopefully they will grow.  Like I said before, check back in a few weeks to see if I found my green thumb.  As of right now, the only thing that I can successfully grow is mold.  I sure hope that stops here.
