Looks like it is time to propagate the basil.
After a week or so, the basil cuttings have grown a lot of healthy roots.
I bought another IKEA Kallax shelf for the second tier of the garden, along with another set of Feit Electric LED grow lights. I used adhesive velcro strips to stick the lights to the top of the shelf, which has worked for the most part. One side of the top tier light got unstuck so I've had to secure it with string instead. We'll see how long the rest of them last.
Cat tried to supervise my gardening efforts, but then he fell asleep.
The top tier of the garden. The front planter has the strawberry plant and mint cuttings I've transplanted from the balcony. The back planter has trellises for the Sugar Ann snap peas and Tiny Tim cherry tomatoes I've seeded.
The bottom tier is the same as before, primarily herbs. The basil cuttings have been planted at the back, and the front space will be for experimenting with cilantro.
The 2-tier garden completed.

Fast Growing Vegetables You Can Grow In Under 60 Days
Gardening is a rewarding hobby that not only provides fresh produce but also offers a sense of accomplishment. For those who are impatient or have a short growing season, fast-growing vegetables are a perfect solution.
Many vegetables can be harvested in under 60 days, allowing you to enjoy homegrown produce quickly. Here are some top choices for fast-growing vegetables, along with tips on how to grow them successfully.
Tumblr media
1. Radishes
Growing Time: 20-30 days
Radishes are one of the quickest-growing vegetables, often ready to harvest in just three to four weeks. They thrive in cool weather, making them ideal for spring and fall planting.
Radishes prefer loose, well-drained soil and full sun. Plant seeds about half an inch deep and one inch apart. Water regularly to keep the soil moist, and thin seedlings if they become crowded to ensure proper growth.
2. Lettuce
Growing Time: 30-45 days
Lettuce is a versatile leafy green that grows rapidly. There are various types of lettuce, including leaf, romaine, and butterhead, all of which can be harvested in under two months. Lettuce prefers cool weather and partial shade, especially in hotter climates. Sow seeds directly into the soil, about a quarter-inch deep, and thin the seedlings to give each plant enough space. Regular watering is essential to keep the leaves tender and sweet.
3. Spinach
Growing Time: 35-45 days
Spinach is another fast-growing leafy green that is packed with nutrients. It grows best in cool weather and can be planted in early spring or fall. Spinach seeds should be sown about half an inch deep and spaced an inch apart.
Thin the seedlings to allow for proper growth. Spinach requires consistent moisture and well-drained soil. Harvest the outer leaves as needed, or cut the entire plant when it reaches maturity.
4. Arugula
Growing Time: 30-40 days
Arugula, also known as rocket, is a peppery green that adds a unique flavor to salads. It grows quickly in cool weather and can be planted in early spring or fall. Arugula seeds should be sown about a quarter-inch deep and spaced an inch apart. Thin the seedlings to allow for adequate growth. Arugula prefers well-drained soil and regular watering. Harvest the leaves when they are young and tender for the best flavor.
5. Green Onions (Scallions)
Growing Time: 50-60 days
Green onions, or scallions, are easy to grow and can be harvested in about two months. They can be planted in early spring or late summer for a fall harvest. Sow the seeds about a quarter-inch deep and space them an inch apart. Green onions prefer full sun and well-drained soil. Keep the soil consistently moist for the best growth. Harvest when the green tops are about six inches tall.
6. Bush Beans
Growing Time: 50-60 days
Bush beans are a great choice for a fast-growing vegetable that produces a generous harvest. They thrive in warm weather and should be planted after the last frost. Sow the seeds about an inch deep and three inches apart. Bush beans prefer full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly, especially during flowering and pod development. Harvest the beans when they are firm and crisp.
7. Zucchini
Growing Time: 50-60 days
Zucchini is a prolific summer squash that grows rapidly and produces abundant fruit. Plant zucchini seeds directly in the garden after the last frost, about an inch deep and spaced two to three feet apart. Zucchini needs full sun and well-drained soil. Water consistently and mulch around the plants to retain moisture. Harvest the zucchini when they are six to eight inches long for the best flavor.
8. Turnips
Growing Time: 40-60 days
Turnips are a versatile root vegetable that can be harvested for both their roots and greens. They grow best in cool weather and should be planted in early spring or late summer. Sow the seeds about half an inch deep and spaced an inch apart. Thin the seedlings to four inches apart once they start growing. Turnips prefer well-drained soil and consistent moisture. Harvest the roots when they are about two to three inches in diameter.
Growing Tips For Success
Soil Preparation: Ensure your soil is well-prepared before planting. Loosen the soil and add compost or organic matter to improve fertility and drainage.
Watering: Consistent watering is crucial for fast-growing vegetables. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged to prevent root rot and other issues.
Sunlight: Most fast-growing vegetables require full sun, which means at least six hours of direct sunlight per day. Choose a sunny spot in your garden for planting.
Succession Planting: To ensure a continuous harvest, practice succession planting by sowing seeds every few weeks. This way, you'll always have fresh vegetables ready to pick.
Pest Management: Monitor your garden for pests and take action as needed. Use organic pest control methods, such as neem oil or insecticidal soap, to protect your plants.
Conclusion
Growing fast-growing vegetables is a fantastic way to enjoy fresh produce quickly. With a little planning and care, you can have a bountiful harvest in under 60 days. Whether you have a large garden or just a small space, these vegetables are perfect for any gardener looking to maximize their growing season. Happy gardening!

Easy to Grow Herbs (Indoors!)
If you’re interested in growing your own herbs for your witchy and culinary pursuits, this is a list of plants I’d recommend for getting started!
Tumblr media
Chives
Chives, chives, chives chives chives! In the same family as onions, chives have an excellent tolerance for low-light environments (but still thrive in sunny windows). This is also a relatively low-maintenance plant, needing some consistent watering and that’s about it! Chives also tend to grow to maturity very quickly (within ~60 days of sprouting) and a simple trim down to the base is all you need to harvest.
Parsley
This wonderful luck-bringing herb is very easy to grow in your kitchen. All this low-sunlight tolerating plant needs is for the soil to be kept lightly moist with occasional watering. Keeping it in your kitchen is great for when you need to grab a couple of springs to add to your cooking!
Basil
Basil is insanely easy to grow and even easier to propagate. All you need to do is stick them in a well-drained container and keep the water moist throughout the growing cycle. Then you harvest them when they’re ready!
Thyme
This plant easily adjusts to small pots and containers. It’s also very easy to propagate from any clippings you may have! This lovely little herb is drought-tolerant and sun-loving, while also being adaptable as long as it has suitable drainage. 
Rosemary
As opposed to some of the other herbs on this list, you’ll want to keep rosemary roots (and therefore the soil) on the drier side of things. Spritzing the leaves and soil will be better than soaking it in water!

I decided to let my basil plants bloom, since I kept having to pinch buds off. The top is cinnamon basil, and the bottom is dark opal basil.

Another hobby of mine is growing tomatoes, just a few plants but this is from 2, this is maybe a quarter of the yield from them. I have good soil privileges cause im not good at this. Had to pull some not fully ripe because the vines are breaking under the pressure.
