So i figured I would use the last of my thyme seeds, from year before last, and see if they germinated... it seems they are prolific and long lived because i ended up making a little forest. Yes I plan to thin these out as soon as I have the heart to pull some up with tweezers... but In the meantime I thought the photo oppertunities would be awesome. They are only sprouts so don't be disappointed. I actually had tried to sppread them out but i guess when i watered them the seeds congregated to one spont >.< this is when they first started shwoing their tiny green heads This is a week or so later, when i noticed they had moved all to one spot and this was a couple days ago!!! rich little thyme forest. I hope to pull some up and spread them out if possible, but it won't be the end of the world if I am not able to save every tiny little one, but i figured this would be a nice thing to look at
In the Culinary World they are called Microgreen. I came across it from watching cooking shows. Before I knew about it I just compost them but now I get to enjoy them. Try it, I'm sure you would like it!
my thyme is growing very well now! I'm not going to bring it outside till june when the temp should be about the same as it is in my apartment. it's still doing just fine even without direct sunlight!! They are at least 2 inchest long now
