Day 1 - Preparation and Planting |
|
|
|
| Set up four containers with an identical mixture of potting soil and peet moss. Containers A, B and C will have different fertilizers, container Ɵ will be natural. | Dissolved one teaspoon of fertilizer in a cup of water for each container. The cup of water for control container was just plain water. |
| Added water to each container to provide moisture for seed to germinate. | Made a sheet of paper to make it easier to space/plant seeds. On the left I planter xxx Basil, on the right, xxx Basil. |
| After planting all seeds, I added an additional 1/4 to 1/2 inch of damp soil to cover seeds and help with germaniation. | Here is a picture of the completed containers. |
| I covered the containers with plastic wrap to keep in moisture. I also moved the containers to the basement near the furnace for a warm place to start. | Fertilizer for Container X |
