Making use of non-recyclables!

After finishing off the the delicious cheery tomatoes that came in this plastic container pictured above, I thought that it might make a good mini-greenhouse for herbs. I used basil seed from a 2012 lot and was surprised when practically all the seed that was sown germinated! I plan to plant some other herbs as soon as I can find the seeds on display at the local grocery store. 

These basil plants will be transferred  out to the garden after I thin them. I've also started a new container with far fewer seeds to keep indoors this summer!
