My first try-fenugreek!

28th day: Transplanted
So they were finally transplanted in a not so bigger pot. I am guessing transplant was a success as they did not fall over today...knock on the wood! They had bigger roots than i imagined them to have at this stage....long tap roots and since they did not have much room to extend they were spiraling..looked beautiful!


27 days old:
i have still not been able to re-pot, going to Lowes today for some potting mix. This has been easiest to grow, new leaves are coming up!


Around 3 weeks old(6th August):
need to repot them ..... i see few new leaves breaking out in the tallest one

i threw some seeds of fenugreek in a wet paper towel...wooo! in 4 days i had saplings...i then planted them in soil and they got a grip on their roots.

Now its time to repot...i have neither mix nor pots.... i am trying to save on money as this is my first trial so using all kinds of plastic boxes i can lay my hands on - the box i have used for fenugreek is the empty cake box from Safeway!
It is now 2 weeks old!


Sprouted in 1 week!

i will keep adding photographs
