I really like sprouting plants from seeds.

The coolest thing I have done is to grow catnip to flowering maturity, then next year attempt to sprout the seeds from the dried out flowers. If this plant grew in my basement before, its progeny should, too.

Have sunflower sprouts. Basil. Cilantro. Cat grass. Thyme. Last year’s rosemary is really doing well, and I look forward to 2nd year rhubarb.

Not an exhaustive list, I am just into growing plants lately.
