I poked a hole in the bottom of the egg shell with a tack. After 11 days, the root began to poke through the hole.

My full and kooky life as a homeschooling mommy to 2 great kids, raising a child with HLHS (Hypolastic Left Heart Syndrome), coping with depression, following Jesus, and being much too camera happy.

Amazing 🤩
Only 11 days and it grew that tall! Wonder how much bigger it will get.
Lovely project.
Thank you Miriam! It was a lot of fun to see them grow and the other seeds are just starting to germinate. I never get basil, so I’m really hoping that this is the spring where I can grow it to some fruition.
Look at those seedlings grow!!
Like the story of Jack and the Beanstalk – it was thriving while your family was laying low with Covid.
It’s growing taller and today I took wooden chopsticks to support its height. I’m wondering if I should’ve planted it a bigger and taller pot. Maybe if it gets too leggy. I’ll transfer. Hopefully it won’t get killed in the process. I usually start strong with gardening and end up with scraps in a few months. eek!
I’m no whiz with houseplants, believe me … I am lucky if I can keep a poinsettia until Christmas without it losing the colorful leaves and looking pitiful.
I usually kill my houseplants too, but my success started with a Pothos plant. I got it 2 Christmases ago and I have propagated many of its stems. And when the fish tank needs some sprucing up, I get some of the stems and place them in the tank.
If you are interested in a houseplant, like a hardy one, try a Pothos. They are forgiving plants.
