So I have a new project that I'm 98% sure I will fail at. (I know, that sentence is terrible first the lack of confidence and then to top it off it is ended with a preposition!!!) How dare I!
Step 3: Pour some hot water over the odd looking brown pellets.

Anyways, you want to know why I almost know I will fail? Well, I kill everything I touch! Anything green that is.
I am trying anyways to grow my own herb garden though. I'm sick and tired of paying $2 a piece for a package of herbs. So it's time for a change. Well, not time yet. It will actually take awhile for me to grow my own herbs, but that's okay. Good things take time right?
So I invite you to follow me on my journey of success (or failure) of growing an herb garden.
Step 1: Buy seed packets (oh and there are A LOT of seeds in one packet, don't be fooled by their size!)![](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gGl77fh4dVE/SszHSAYYU_I/AAAAAAAAAlg/P7M2P5isj8I/s320/923726570407.jpg)
Step 2: Buy this nifty Jiffy Seed Starter Kit at your local Home Depot.

Step 4: Wait for them to grow at least 1 inch tall.

Step 5: Pull away the netting at the top and plant 3 seeds a piece!

Step 6: Cover and wait.

To Be Continued.........................
Sounds great! I've been wanting to do this for a while now but can't find seeds where I live until spring! Maybe I will have to hunt a little more for some.
