Another Update: Grow a Christmas Tree Project

I just took these pictures just minutes ago and boy, have my seeds sprouted! It looks so much different since two weeks ago when I posted the last picture, doesn't it? It's amazing. They are over an inch high and the directions say to replant when they reach three inches. I thought that would never happen! Also, it looks like not only will I have one Christmas tree but I'll have three! I'm going to have to open my own Christmas tree lot.

Update: Operation Grow a Christmas Tree

I took a picture a few days ago to show the status of my little gardening experiment and, lo and behold, some green is poking through the dirt! It's working! You have to look closely (maybe click on the picture to see it bigger) but it's definitely started to grow. And, actually, it's grown a lot higher in the four days since I took that picture and I actually think another piece is peaking through the dirt, too. I'll definitely keep everyone updated, maybe post another picture this weekend. Who knows, maybe I will have a Christmas tree by December.

Operation Grow a Christmas Tree Begins

I bought this little Christmas tree growing kit at Target after Christmas for about 25 cents and today, I planted it! I figured it would be a nice project to track on my blog. Who knows, by Christmas maybe I'll have a cute little tree to decorate! Somehow I'm doubtful that the couple of seeds and soil block that came in the package will result in a tree but hey, I did spend a lot of money on it so maybe it will surprise me. Ha ha.
