Baby tomato and baby basil. Will have more soil today and will be planting bell peppers, cilantro, rosemary, and dill. ![20241010_122920](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/8/2/1/82191329cc7b501ae816992b0b5b048adbd5a7e2.jpeg) ![20241010_122926](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/d/9/d/d9d960f98366ee6a63b50c8a23cf7aa74ffa63cd.jpeg) ---

Right on!! We got an Aerogarden (small hydro unit) and grow a lot of herbs in that. It’s awesome cooking with the fresh herbs. Basil, rosemary, thyme, etc. ---

Basil and tomatoes are doing fine. Bell peppers, dill, and cilantro aren’t up yet. ![20241024_154837](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/0/d/f/0dffa4b086cfb36988d1477080ce3c1694e2cbe4.jpeg) ![20241024_154841](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/0/e/b/0ebc34a5ffc2ed12e2fe4c03dd943ff4c75960d8.jpeg) ---

Have been harvesting basil for spaghetti sauce. Cilantro has been up for a few days and the dill just came up today. ![20241024_1548373](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/6/5/e/65e03f48d7bea0b7486fd190b6c0125064559d61.jpeg) Tomatoes (left) are doing fine.

Tomato, cilantro, and basil are doing great. Only 2 or 3 dill seeds came up, but no biggie since I don’t use much any way. Just for salmon and tzatziki sauce. The peppers just put up their 1st set of true leaves. ![20241112_070256](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/8/c/a/8ca633ad16ab8a47d26dba2fd707ec2913ff4ba6.jpeg) ![20241112_070301](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/c/0/b/c0b7308c95a6c480a970b7dd51975fe452765795.jpeg) ![20241112_070306](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/c/f/d/cfdd1bbf1ed45b79e5fe8974629a64c5dd3a235c.jpeg) ![20241112_070310](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/6/d/f/6df45bf9225836aab655d4e2c5a36563db82e283.jpeg) ---

Fun to watch man. I’m going to grow some of these and tomatoes soon. Now sure how im going to use the peppers; probably salsa, dry some for seasoning, etc. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/6/2/0/62002c0ab3d67ea71ecfe4ab2b1993e5ad56817c.jpeg) ---

These are going to be pretty hot. Should be some killer salsa. What peppers are you growing besides bell? ---

Ten weeks after planting: the first ripe tomato. I should figure out how to do a perpetual grow. I’m going to have more than I can eat over a couple of weeks and that will be it. ![20250109_104634](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/f/a/b/fab42aed21941c50ef6ef06bf1d02765f3986724.jpeg) The pepper plants are flowering, but don’t yet have fruit. The plants are super healthy. ![20250109_105144](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/1/c/0/1c0df972736d5514e0e2f678e37d771b08e2b7bd.jpeg) ---

My wife is a pepper freak, each year i grow her some of the hottest peppers you can buy all so she can regret her decisions 🤣 In the past we’ve grow Reaper, Death Spirals, Bhutlahs, Apocalypse Scorpions, 7 pot Chocolates and Ghosts, along with any other thing she sees online and cant live without. Me? A jalapeño is about as far as i can go, a Cayenne if im feeling really ballsy, but that woman isnt happy unless her teeth are melting. Ill never understand the fascination with super hots…but what momma wants, momma gets. 🔥 ---

I have mustard greens for my uromastyx, tomatoes, and sugar snap peas going now. My peppers aren’t up yet. Basil is just starting to pop. It’s fun having a variety of winter crops especially living in the frozen tundra of the northeast lol [Next page](https://ilgmforum.com/t/a-casual-winter-grow-of-veggies/114992.md?page=2)
