New herb starts!

Oops, this should be in HERB section, not veggie. Mods welcome to change.


I stopped at Home Depot to do something, well, lets be honest, wanted to see what has come in for new plant starts. I have seen a few early veggies (cabbage, lettuce etc). There were a few herb starts, real fresh and pretty! So what did I get?

3 cilantro and 3 thyme. These are the Bonnie plants, some have 3 distinct starts, and good sized plants. The thyme is full, and cilantro about 5" and pretty. I have some cilantro and thyme seedlings poking along, but need to push things now for the market. I am trying to do the farmers market every 2 -3 weeks until it kicks full in April. Cilantro seasonal here, and I need lots more thyme. I think I killed some last summer with too much love aka water. I may take some suggestions here and try a couple of pots to dedicate for cilantro. Worth a try!

FWIW, I will be putting these new babies in pots in the next few days, 10 -12" size as they may need brought in yet.
