Phase 3- Plant! We planted 2 kinds of lettuce, kale, chard, and cabbage. Plus tomatoes and peppers and herbs in separate pots.
Phase 4- Watch them grow and eat 'em up! (hopefully. I half expect them all to either magically have disappeared, be dead, trampled by the dog, or eaten by rabbits before the weekend's up. eek! good luck little guys! )
Do you garden? I am not ashamed to admit we are boneheaded novices. Tips and suggestions much appreciated! FX'd these little dudes take root and get nice and comfy out there. I'll update you all on my progress, and maybe in a couple months you'll be seeing a zillion more recipes for chard and kale.
