This edible beauty mix is interesting. I've never planted from seed before! The majority have sprouted. Mostly it's a lot of borage and arugula. If I knew then what I know now, I would spread the seed MUCH MUCH lighter. Gosh, I also wish I had researched the individual plants before spreading it. I would have likely sorted the seeds a little better. The borage is taking over. I had no idea. Also insane amount of arugula. I've had hoards of grasshoppers and ants this year, but it's still looking good! But I do wish I knew better what I was planting. My bad. Maybe the chickens will eat the greens? We'll see. Wow, I wish I would have thinned it out. I've got a lot of fetchin "Lettuce" growing haha.

Mostly radishes sprouted, so I thinned them a few times to make room for other sprouts. It took a few weeks but now there’s a few basil and borage 1 tiny dill and a few others.

Great germination but mostly radishes, borage and bachelor's buttons. it looked more like weeds than flowers. I will try another mix next time.
