Newbie, here are my herbs (pics)

Hi,

I'm a newbie in all of these herbs thing but I'm in culinary school and having the freshest ingredients is one the most important things in this career so here I am.

Today was the first day I added some seeds to some nice soil.

I started with, basil, thyme and dill.

Here are some pics of the seeds going in the soil.

All of them together.

If you're wondering, I didn't put any pics of the thyme seeds because I took the pics with my blackberry and you couldn't see them.

Cheers.

Good Luck!!

Looks like you put a whole bunch of seeds very close together, so as soon as they start sprouting you will need to pull some to make room....

Yes I just noticed that but somebody told that I'm in time to spread the seeds all around the pot is that true??.

Cheers

If they haven't sprouted roots at all yet, yes.

I just planted them yesterday so I dug a little bit but I couldn't find the seeds so I supose I will leave it like that and wait for your advice when it sprouts.

And well since I've already made a mistake I would like some advices with this herbs, like how often do I have to water each of them, do I just spray over the soil? or do I pour watter so it goes all the way down?, and all of those things because as I said I'm newbie in all of this.

Cheers.
