Meet Herbs

Herbs are aromatic plants used for culinary, medicinal, and decorative purposes. Common herbs like basil, mint, and rosemary are easy to grow and add fresh, vibrant flavors to dishes, while others like lavender and chamomile are known for their soothing properties. Many herbs thrive both indoors and outdoors, making them versatile additions to gardens and kitchens alike.

Light

Herbs generally prefer full sun, with at least 6-8 hours of direct light daily. Some, like mint and parsley, can tolerate partial shade. If growing indoors, place them near a sunny window or supplement with grow lights to ensure they receive enough light for healthy growth.

Water

Most herbs thrive in well-drained soil, so be cautious not to overwater. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Herbs like basil prefer consistent moisture, while drought-tolerant herbs like rosemary need less frequent watering. Always water at the base to avoid wetting the foliage, which can lead to fungal issues.

Humidity

Most herbs enjoy moderate humidity. While they can tolerate average indoor humidity levels, misting them occasionally or placing a humidity tray nearby can help them thrive, especially in dry environments.

Temperature

Herbs grow best in temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Keep them away from cold drafts or extreme heat. Indoor herbs will do well in a stable environment with mild fluctuations.

   Common Problems Q&A

Why are my herb leaves turning yellow?

Yellowing leaves can be a sign of overwatering, nutrient deficiency, or poor drainage. Make sure your soil drains well and check if the herb is getting enough light.

My herbs are wilting even though I’m watering them. What’s wrong?

Overwatering is a common cause of wilting. Ensure your herbs are in well-draining soil and that the roots aren’t sitting in water. Also, check if the pot has drainage holes.

What’s causing brown or crispy edges on my herb leaves?

This could be due to underwatering, low humidity, or too much direct sun. Water your herbs more frequently and mist them if the air is dry.
