Seedling Update.

the basil is going all-out. the "sprout rate" as of this evening appears to be ~80%. i'll be transferring this batch from paper towel to soil this weekend. darin laughs at me because i check the seeds a couple of times a day, but they are coming along so quickly that you can really see a difference from morning to evening.

somehow, i doubt our parents get quite as excited about seed updates as they would about grandchild updates, but this will have to suffice for now.

Gardening Philosophy. eventually i'll write about this, but here's the short version: i don't believe in coddling plants. i do believe in native plants.
