That's cool that you're taking FG seeds that way, I've heard of a few other women taking them like that, too. I'm not sure how it will affect the results; in one aspect, you're not getting any fillers. However, I'm not sure if you're able to consume the same amount that way that you would be able to taking it in pill form.
I say, keep at it with the FG seeds, but you definitely need to add something else. Right now, my program is FG, Saw Palmetto and Red Clover. However, I have been switching every two months between red clover and hops (just to see the difference it might make). I'm still not sure which I like better, but it's usually better to switch them every once in a while anyway to help prevent stalling. A lot of people also use Wild Yam with great results, but I've never tried it. I might if my growth starts to stall.
Pills are NOT a waste of money. It's usually good to eat them on an empty stomach, at least 20 minutes before a meal. However, I know hops work best if taken with food, so keep that in mind. If you're worried about a budget, I say take the pills for a few months, see where it gets you, and if you're not getting enough growth, then try adding an extract for massage. I've been dry massaging this whole time with great results, and just added flaxseed oil, which doesn't seem to be giving me any added results yet. Everyone's body is different, but it's much better to take the pills so your hormones can be stabilized internally, rather than only absorbing some of the benefit (with massage, most of the oil will end up on your hands rather than you breasts).
It's all very confusing at first, but once you decide on a routine, you'll get the hang of it more and more through first-hand experience. Also, a lot of women cycle stuff according to where they are in their monthly cycle, so maybe look into that. I don't know anything about cycles, but I stop all my herbs for 5 days starting on the first day of my monthly. This keeps my hormone receptors from filling up, so I don't stall with results. Also, cleanse every three months (most people use milk thistle, but I've tried it and I prefer full body detox kits) to flush your body of the extra hormones.
Hope you get the hang of it real soon, and good luck!
