Evidently I signed up for a free 3 month trial of ORGANIC GARDENING magazine ... that's the only reason I can think of that I suddenly started receiving it. As it turns out, I'm kinda psyched that I did. In the February/March 2010 issue, an article by Willi Evans Galloway (page 78) details how to grow microgreens indoors. Since I had a packet of Baby Leaf Lettuce, Heirloom Cutting Mix, from Renee's Seeds, I decided to give it a try. Hot damn, they're sprouting! Aren't they weird and wonderful? I have no idea how I'll use them but I trust some of my foodie pals will help me figure it out.

The Aliens Have Landed!

Yummy...I have the best germination luck with Renee's seeds. Do you recommend the mag? gail
Gail, this is the first issue I've gotten so I'm not sure yet if I can recommend it. I've always felt like they were more geared to veggie gardeners and those who live in the Midwest, North, Northeast. They've reformatted and it's flashier than I ever thought OG would be! Check it out at B&N and let me know what you think.
I'd love to run my fingers over them.
How fun! I can't wait to start seeds!
They do look like aliens. Isn't Willi a great writer? I just love her.~~Dee
