    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

yes I know its feb. still lol but I do a lot of inside gardening due to I live in an Apartment. So as of right now there is

Basil (3 pots)
Thyme (5 pots)
Rosemary (3 pots)
Chives (2 pots)
Chamomile (5 pots)

Just planted so another 2 weeks before we see anything.
 
I recently got into indoor gardening myself, thanks to acquiring a couple of Sulcata torts. What started out as growing several different grasses, some hibiscus and dandelion under some compact florescent lights has evolved greatly the last couple of months.

I now have two high end horticulture lights and am growing all kinds of herbs, cherry and regular tomatoes, cucumbers, several types of peppers and chilies, prickly pear cactus and a few house plants. As well as the stuff for the torts of course.

Never liked gardening out in the yard, but I have found that I really enjoy doing this stuff indoors. And I have to say, the taste difference is amazing. I will never buy a store tomato ever again.
 
that's what I'm starting to get more into...I just moved in last November so HOPEFULLY by march I'll have that extra room cleaned completely out and start up my rep/planting room. I just wish it wasn't so cold in connecticut :( I'd love to plant year round somewhere lol
 
I need to start my herb gardens again. I use a good-but-don't-need-anymore 10gal tank with lots of rock for drainage. So far it's worked out very well. I like to grow my own cilantro & basil. This year it's going to come in handy for growing my beardie's food.
