Yesterday, I had a garden update and well today I have another. :)
I decided it was time to get rid of the cups that didn't have any sprouts, and the ones that were moldy and smelly. I also re-potted some sprouts.
Here's an close-up of a sprout. :)
Here's the little mini greenhouses I got from the dollar tree. I only got one sprout (green bean) out of all of these. I don't know if I over watered or what but they contained moisture and they smelled so bad. Time to go.
Here's with the lid off. Not good. I won't get these again.
Here's some of the seedlings/sprouts I re-potted today. As an extra touch....I added in some dinosaurs (I got them from the dollar spot at Target). I added them to my garden just because they bring in some color and awesomeness. Plus, dinosaurs are cool. :)
I have a squash sprout in each clear cup. I will probably repot the sprouts next weekend. The plastic containers have holes in the bottom for drainage. I also have each pot sitting in a squared, Medifast tray. (I have a bunch of trays leftover and found a new use for them).
Sunflowers and Marigolds
Green Bean Sprout, Carrots and Broccoli
Happy Sprouts! :)
Oh, I don't think I ever shared my other 2 succulents I got from the dollar tree. All 3, look adorable in the kitchen window. :)
Yay for the sprouts. Your faux succulents are cute -- nice if you don't care to bother with growing them.
ReplyDeleteI buy lots of goodies for gardening at Dollar Tree too. I bought the jersey gloves and some biscuit/brownie pans that will hold 6 of the little plastic pots. I hate it when little pots are turning over everywhere.
Thanks for reading Jean! :)
ReplyDeleteGood idea. The Dollar tree has some great things on the cheap.
