It’s that time of year. Time for the garden to start making it’s way to the table. My herb plants are way ahead of the vegetables and I don’t want to waste them so I’m going to start preserving them. One of the easiest ways is to make spice blends.

The Dirt: newspaper seedling pots


I’m going to start the herbs in pots and then transfer them to the garden once I clear out {uh, weed} an area. I was intrigued with newspaper starter pots that I had seen around various websites and wanted to give them a try.

The nice thing about newspaper starter pots is that once the plant is large enough to be transplanted, you just plant the entire paper pot in the ground. You can rip the bottom open a bit so the roots easily spread out. Your plant will be protected until the newspaper breaks down and composts.

To make these newspaper pots, you’ll need:
- Newspaper
- Masking Tape
- Optional: paper for labels and scraps of fabric

Once your pots are done, fill them with potting soil and add your seeds or little starter plants.

The pots are sitting on a bed of pebbles and paper shreds in this galvanized container.

Now I just have to buy the herb plants, clear out an area of the garden and get ready for some delicious fresh herbs.
Thanks for visiting.
