I’ve a jungle in my kitchen.
My first cycle of indoor window sill herb growing may soon be coming to an end.
The repotted basil and chives seem to be, quite literally, growing before my eyes.
They obviously enjoyed being moved into the kitchen, and have shown it by getting taller, no doubt trying to reach the sun which streams in through the window, especially in the late afternoon and evening.
The basil leaves are now large canopies, and it even smells like basil should, whereas the chives seem to be reaching for the sky, looking like long and wispy fingers.
The coriander is still slowly but surely getting there, and I think it will have to be moved and repotted soon too, to continue the new-found growth.
Otherwise, for the six-week-old kitchen window sill crops at least, it could soon be time for cutting, bagging, and freezing.
