got my herbs planted

I might be spelling it wrong, but it is a vietnamese noodle soup.
I think Carol posting a recipe for one similar in the Soups collection thread. It has rice noodles, basil, cilantro, mint, onions, chicken broth, and you can add either meats or chicken. It tastes so good

Woo-Hoo...My herbs are sprounting!

I have my herb box on my deck and here the neighbor cats must be stepping in my pot. There are paw marks! AAhhh!!!!

Glad your herbs,are doing well Sue.Good Job! Oh Boy,that isn't good about the cats,can you set your herb container,on some type of table?

[sue211]

Thank Ann!

Yea, that is what Bob said to me so I am going to try it. But, they can jump up on the table too. I said to Bob, "If they use that as a litter box I am going to be MAD!

I am getting bugs from the rosemary transfering to my herbs!!! help!
they look like small jumping aphids, and I can't kill them without compromising the herbs.
Any suggestions? I tried the insecticidal soap, organic so it won't harm people, but they just jump right back on.

Christine...

Try Seven, you can get it in a spray or powder. Now, when you go to use the herbs, you must wash it thoroughly. I use the powder and then I can spinkle it on all my plants. It's not that expensive; about $8 - 10 for a container of powder. I hope this helps you!
