Making room for the basil plants.

The basil came out. From my own seed too. I´m so happy. Now they are very small seedlings. But later on I will plant them separate in small containers and much later I´ll place then in their definite soil. I am watering them every day at the right time of the dy so that the roots are fine. I am in full gardening mood.

@LadyDuck I do that. But some of the younger seedlings don´t make it to adulthood.

@marguicha As usual I seeded too many seeds closely, now I have to move the young plants in bigger pots.

I am "letting go" of my corn and sunflower plants. Did harvest another green bean a couple of days ago. Soon I will plant snow peas for the Winter months.

@marguicha I've been doing snow pears for years here in Winter. The climate is temperate enough that they do quite well.

Happy gardening! :-) I lost my basil plants recently, I don't know what happen, the leaves and stem dried in one branch and gradually all didn't make it.
