I bought some seeds at the supermarket.

The last time I went to the supermarket, I bought some veggies for my new diet. Among them there was a very small package of arugula. As it was organic, it costed a King´s ransom. I am using it in very small amounts with lettuce, over cheese in a sandwich and even to munch as a snack. But it is much too expensive. Before Luna arrived at my house, I planted arugula every year. It grew like weed and I planted a bit every 2 or 3 weeks. Of course it was organic. More than organic in fact as I water my garden with tap water and never use a pesticide. So, today, when I went to change my gift card, I bought some arugula seeds. I´ll place them in the garage, away from Miss Luna. Do you plant any sort of veggies or herbs?

Sometimes we buy seed also at the market. Seeds like tomato and eggplant and grow them. It is nice to have fresh veggies.

Greens are easy to grow although you have to pick them at the right time.

I plant arugula every year, the seeds spread everywhere, it is like a weed if you do not pick up the young plants with the roots.

I love arugula and have a large rosemary plant on my lanai.

I also have a rosemary plant. For some strange reason, Luna has not destroyed it.

@marguicha Perhaps it's the beautiful scent that keeps her away.

We did a long time ago, and I would like to start again and get some tomatoes growing so I can make fried green tomatoes.

@hillhjill When I planted them they grew easily. I hope it works now in spite of Luna.

You have a real problem that is called Luna

. Hope those seeds will thrive in the garage. Good luck with your gardening

I would love to plant some herbs and tomatoes this year. Growing your own arugula certainly is a good way to save money

Any plant that is only sold 'organic' is worth growing.

I hope you're able to grow it without Luna destroying it. Can you grow things in pots and put them up out of her reach?

That´s what I´ll do. I only need a few plants for myself.

I do not plant seeds in the home since gardening is not my area of expertise.
