Common sense goes a long way to quickly developing new skills, I would say :)

Have you guys ever looked into an AeroGarden, for stuff you might not put in your little plot or for the winter months? I have one and love it, I grow certain herbs in it and it helps keep my apartment feeling fresh and lively during wintertime.

You can buy seed packets/pods from the company that makes the AeroGarden, which is what I usually do. My current setup is growing italian basil, purple basil, thyme, mint, dill, chives and parsley.

I might try strawberries later this spring/summer.
