Gardening IV - Sowing

Sunday, David and I planted my seeds in the four pots I bought last Friday--dill on the left and basil on the right. He used a little hoe so we wouldn't have to stick our hands into the chicken droppings. (Note to self: Buy gardening gloves.) We planted several seeds in each pot, just an inch or two down, and then I watered them. I've been watering them every day because it's so bone-dry here, but no sprouts yet. Yesterday I moved one pot of each kind to the southwestern side of the house instead of southeastern. There's less shade there, so they'll get more hours of direct sunlight. Cross your fingers! Thanks for all your advice and tips. We hope this works! :)
