Start An Herbal Tea Garden
February 25th, 2010
If you are a beginning gardener, starting your gardening experience with an herb garden is an excellent choice. Get ready to learn about herb gardening.
Herbs can grow either inside of outside your home. Beginners should start with just a few plants.The reasons for this is simple.Outside your plants are subjected to climate conditions such as wind, rain, frost and other conditions that you will be unable to control. Indoors you can control all of these conditions including the amount of sunlight by using a grow light on cloudy days.
Having control over these conditions will make you experience easier and you likely won’t get as frustrated. As you become more comfortable you can try moving your herbs to a deck or porch, and then eventually a garden.Then you’ll be able to enjoy fresh herbs whenever you want.
Getting a starter plant from a nursery will also help increase your chances for success.That is because seed germination does not always take place if the seed is too old or simply not a good a seed.
So by starting with a plant that you know is healthy it increase the chances of your seed growing.
Choosing Your Plants
The best way to choose the plants for your indoor herb garden is to start by making a list of those herbs you would like to grow the most.Once you have a list of ten or so herbs then find out which ones are available in starter plants as some herbs you can only grow from seeds. Next, you are going to have to determine how much space you have in the area where you are planning your indoor garden and just how many plants you want to begin with.
It’s best to start with 3-5 for beginners. Fewer plants will help you focus and observer which will improve your gardening skills. A few suggestions for starters are oregano, chives, or mint. You can also ask for recommendations from your nursery.
Go By The Book
One of the best things you can do before beginning your first herb garden is to purchase a book or download articles on herb gardening and read as much as you can about this hobby. Talk to your nursery and if possible anyone you know that has successfully raised their own herbs. The more you know about herb gardening before you start the more confident you will feel in this venture and the more likely you are to enjoy your gardening experience.
