Soaking Seeds




Three of the herbs I planted inside did not sprout; oregano, sage and chives.  I read that soaking seeds overnight before planting will help them germinate









A snowy day was the perfect time to try it.













I sprinkled the seeds on paper towels.

Then I wet them and rolled up the paper towels.

I tried using a dish filled with water before but it didn't work. Maybe this way will be better.

  1. I never saw this way in paper towels . I think that when we plant ,we must put the seeds not more than one cm down the ground !

  2. We used to germinate black beans in damp cotton wool as a child.

    1. If this doesn't work then maybe the seeds are not right. Maybe they could be old.

Understanding the Introvert

I have to admit it. I'm an introvert and this article explains it best. I need friends as much as anyone but I just find it difficult.  Anyway, I'm better off this way than being with people who are phony and manipulative.  Here is a copy of the article from the "Lifehack" site: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/you-didnt-get-why-you-couldnt-get-along-with-introverts-before-you-read-this-youll-understand-after.html The website is on my list of interesting sites.
 

QWERTY vs DVORAK Keyboard

I never knew there was a different type of keyboard like DVORAK instead of QWERTY (named after the first six letters on the left of the first row) , at least not in English or similar languages. Chinese has a modified QWERTY keyboard something like: Or maybe this keyboard below is purely Chinese: Back to English:  The video below explains why the QWERTY keyboard is used almost 100% today and some future possibilities.  Not changing my keyboard, it's not worth the effort for me .
