They need more light. I'd put them outside and transplant them when they get a set of true leaves. All but the basil do well in cooler temps. I'm not sure when your frost date is but the cool weather plants might be able to go in the ground. Swiss chard gets pretty big and isn't a good container plant but all the others will do fine in pots if that's what you are planning on doing. I'd definitely plant the basil in a pot(s). If you are going to grow them inside you'll likely need some sort of grow light. Congrats on your sprouts. Karyn

Queen Bee: I only get real serious about basil. Most other herbs are just passing fancies for me I guess. I use them, but generally only buy them after someone else has grown them. So ... Thyme: I grew it a couple of times and didn't give it much care. It wintered several cold winters and sprung back to life the next spring. My Lebanese friend uses it with olive oil to make a dip for his pita bread and hummus. The English variety grows like a weed. The silvery leaf is a little less vigorous. Neither of them seem very picky. Rosemary: It's pretty. It smells wonderfull. I hate the taste of it on poultry, so I only grew it in pots to look at and smell. Last winter I left the pot outdoors and the rosemary stayed green most of the winter and only seemed to suffer during that last real cold spell. I rudely pulled it out by its roots this spring and stuck in in a spot behind my hysop plant (which has become a wondering Jew of sorts) and the rosemary kinda pokes around looking for sun. But I won't die. Lavendar: My wife grew this lavendar plant in a pot last summer. It looks like rosemary but smells wonderful. I love the way it smells. Brenda needed the pot for something else, so I basically subjected the lavendar to the same treatment as I did the rosemary. Now the lavendar is thriving, shot out dozens of aromatic blossoms, and is trying to thrive in spite of the hysop's invasive overbearance. Mint: Forgettaboutit. You can't kill the damned stuff. It's the spawn of Satan! In pots it root binds and bursts out the drain holes to voraciously colonize any kind of environment you happen to be silly enough to let it conquer. In my yard it has conquered the briars, the brambles, and the burmuda grass. The rapidly growing stems get all gangly and fall over the sides of the pot and re-root like that plant in the Little Shop of Horrors. I started with a couple of sprigs yanked out of a friend's yard. Now I have a crop from Hell. When this happens you should dig up as much of it as you can, re-pot it, trim back the gangly stems, let the plant re-grow until it looks all perky and smells wonderful, then pawn it off on some poor, unsuspecting fool.

Growth is curled because of the bag confinement, but it will straighten out if placed in ground soon. Better to post in main peony forum. I think people seldom look at the gallery.

Are you sure it won't shut off? What happens if you simply let the machine run a while longer? Auto-dry cycles work moisture sensing, not by time. The initial time on the auto-dry cycles is only an estimate to give the user a idea of how long a typical load may take. The electronic control adjusts the time on-the-fly per the characteristics of the load. If the "normal" dryness level is drier than you prefer, step it back a notch, or two. There probably are five selectable dryness levels, with "normal" being the middle choice.
