what do you use on your plants to keep them chemical free but to encourage growth?
i’m talking about mainly herbs & vegetables
chives/oregano/basil etc
onions/carrots/radish/lettuce/tomatoes etc

i have potted all the seeds indoors and they are about 3" average just now and wont be planting outside for a few weeks yet but wondered what you use to encourage growth

thank you

I went apeshit at the garden store and bought 7 herbs now what do I cook with them? I have chives, parsley, rosemary, sage, cilantro, oregano, and basil. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I recently bought a young Sage plant to add to my herb box, which also contains Chives, Thyme, and Parsley. The plants are evenly spaced, planted in fresh potting soil, and the box is well drained. The original three plants are thriving.

According to most gardening sites, young Sage plants should start off in a small cluster of leaves. In time, it should grow into a woody shrub-like plant.

All that being said, my little plant does not look like that. Instead, it has a vine-like appearance. It’s basically one long, thin stem with only a few leaves growing at the top. I’ve debated cutting it down or tying it up with a stake, but I would like to be sure what is best before I take any action.

Any info would be greatly appreciated. And if you need more information from me, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thanks!

I grow Chives, Basil, and Oregeno in my garden and i’m not going to use them all. I was wondering what the best way is to dry, then bottle them. Any help and/or tips are greatly appreciated.

Hi! I would like to start some veggies and herbs in pots on my patio. I have a lot of space in the backyard in direct sunlight too if needed. I just rent instead of owning so I don’t want to plant in the ground.

What veggies and herbs are the easiest to grow?
What supplies do I need to get started?
Which grow best in my environment? (I live on Oahu, Hawaii, about 100 yards from the beach, 80 degrees year round…lots of salt in the air)

I’m mostly interested in growing everyday cooking herbs like parsley, basil, rosemary, cilantro and chives would be awesome. Veggie wise I would love to grow bell peppers, jalapenos, tomatoes (cherry or roma?), and other ones that would work well in pots.

I have never tried to grow anything in my life, but I love to cook and I hate having to run to the store for green onions, peppers and stuff like that all the time, so any advice is greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you so much!!!
