It's ironic to me that my interest in gardening started blooming just as winter came on. Wanting to get my hands dirty wasn't much of an option since our growing season is almost over. So I'm working on indoor seeding projects and I have a tub trying to grow some garlic and ginger. Even though our home is a little cool, I figured at least the garlic will survive. The ginger is just a wild card. So about a week and a half ago I took a 3-ft-long pot and planted 4 bulbs of garlic, and a bit of ginger.

As I was planting them, I saw an apple seed that had been left on the table from my apple seed sprouting adventures. (I love fruit, so I'm trying to get at least one seed to germinate through a variety of methods. No luck so far). On a whim, I decided to pop the seed in with the ginger and garlic.
Fast forward 1.5 weeks and very little is happening in my Garlic/ginger pot. Except for one tiny little sprout. You can easily miss it if you're not looking for it.
Now since this is my first time gardening, what I'm assuming is an apple seedling may just be a weed. But I'm pretty excited about it. It's exciting to make things grow. And from what I can tell, it looks an awful lot like an apple seedling to me! Go little seed go!
