February 2018

I sowed seeds in Plot 7, which I had earlier filled with partially done compost, and which was the last plot to be seeded in 2018. I sowed these seeds:

  • Spinach "Bloomsdale"
  • Radicchio "Palla Rossa Mavrik"
  • Arugula using saved seeds
  • Lettuce "Oak Leaf Blend"
  • Lettuce "Buttercrunch"

Over half of my basil seed pots failed and, after waiting longer than needed, I put more seeds in the same pots to try again. These basil seeds were all given a second try:
  • Italian Genovese
  • Sweet basil from a very old Plantation Products packet
  • Napolitano
  • Sweet Thai (one of the two pots sprouted)
  • Siam Queen
  • Italian Large leaf
The ones that succeeded the first time were:
  • Sweet Thai (only one)
  • Purple Petra
  • Greek Yevani
  • Sweet Basil seeds from the garden
