Looks great! I never had much luck with dill indoors. They usually dry out.
Oh man, I was out looking at my spearmint. All the stems from last year are hard sticks and I couldn't break them off. I need to go out with the pruners and clear them out. My spearmint is barely showing any tiny bit of green.Yesterday, I harvested some of my spearmint, to make my first mint tea of the season. Just a bunch of 3-4" stalks - not a lot of flavor, at first, but I always look forward to starting to get that mint! And soon, I'll have enough of the peppermint, to start using in Indian dishes.

I usually do remove them but somehow I forgot and now they are a bigger pain to remove. It's good to hear how you do it.I always let my mint die off in the fall, then weedwack it level with the ground, after removing the driplines. This way, I'm not fighting with any of those old plants.
