An indoor garden?

ROTFLMAO....no!. Did you read the instructions??? SmackFish

A packet of seeds can do two long garden rows usually.
You are going to be thinning swedes like crazy!
A packet of basil seeds can last me two seasons. You will need to really thin them out to give each plant a chance to grow. If I have five basil sprouts come up together, I keep pulling the smaller one until there is usually only one per 10 inches. Otherwise you will have lots of small scraggly plants.

Ahhhh well ok then lol. Yes they will need thinning most every day is possible. You don't have to pull each individual sprout. You can pinch a little group here and there and pull them out.

yep they're right here in my living room!!!! Very Happy

I thinned out the swedes but they seemed to grow back over night, like the birthday cake candles that never blow out!!!!
I've given up on the strawberries though, I brought an avocado from Tesco the other day and i'm gonna plant the seed and see what grows from it Very Happy

Oh the avocado will grow, but it will be years before it has avocados. My Dad and my niece Liz planted one in my sisters back yard when Liz was little. That was many years ago and the tree is hugh and bears a small crop each year.

I sure do miss my Dad. Fathers and Mothers day are still hard days for me.
I think I really need a vacation.
