Basil and Blueberries!!!

Welp, my Basil seedlings all sprouted...seems if the sprouts survive, there will be about 15 plants. And that isn't including the African Blue Basil, andarious others we may gifted we. So far we have Sweet Basil, Napolitan Basil and Lime Basil. I may take a Thai Basil as friend is offering if noone else takes it.

I bought some perennials for the herb bed yesterday - Chervil, Salad Burnet, Lemon Thyme. The day before I bought some Coriander, Dill, Fennel, Spearmint and Lavendar. The annuals are all in pots or will be, the perennials will be planted in the herb bed, probably Sunday if weather is nice.

We are growing some veggies from seed and have planted some of them in a mini greenhouse made of Pvc and thick plastic per suggestion of Mel Batholomew in All New Square Foot Gardening :) Other veggies (including the Basil) are still too wee to be planted so they will stay inside under the lights for the mean time. However, learned not to plant fast growing plants such as beans inside too early. They may have kinked while we were on vacation and not sure they will survive.

The corn is growing nicely, as is some of the squash. Hope to do a Three Sisters with the corn, beans (will sprout new ones) and squash as well as cucumbers. All 4 are great compnaion plants for each other. Crossing fingers, this will be the first time I try this!

Hurried out and bought some Lowbush North Country, St. Cloud, and Lowbush Michigan Blueberry plants before they sold out. Blueberry plants sell out quickly in my neck of the woods. Hope to plant them Sunday if weather permits and after I finish readying their beds for them. First time for these as well so hoping for the best!
