Hello all!!

I currently am new to this gardening thing but so far i think i enjoy it plenty.

I have tried starting from seeds but after almost 100% failure i have decided to cheat and get starter plants.

So far i have started some basil trimmings on my window ledge and think its pretty amazing how much roots can grow in just 36 hours (after the roots started)


Although i am using fish tank water as a supplement!!

Any advice is welcome!!

Welcome @Midwestnoob,
I am also new to gardening and poor with seeds; also went the same direction by getting starter plants. But I'm sure with time we will learn how to start planting from seeds.

Welcome, I like to use starter plants to win the battle with the birds eating the seeds.

Welcome to the forum It¿s such a brilliant idea to use fish tank water to help your cuttings grow roots I plan to start an aquarium soon, so I will definitely be watering some of my plants with that Why throw it away when it's such an excellent fertilizer? By the way, what kind of fish do you keep? I'm personally dreaming of keeping Japanese ranchus

I have an albino bichir eel and a South American chilid. And some feeder fish. I have a few random love plants. But I just switched purchased a 125gallon tank. The price was to good to pass. I ended up with extra fish too. But I'll be trading those for some better gaskets for the canister filter.
