The greens sold by supermarkets are usually grown using plant growth-promoting chemicals. You can grow parsley, dill or basil yourself - in a flowerpot on the windowsill. The main thing is to know the conditions of their cultivation.
Instructions
Step 1
Dill
Since dill is an undemanding plant, it is quite easy to grow it. It grows well both in partial shade and in the sun. Dill does not like dampness. To grow a plant in a flower pot, dill seeds (about 20 seeds per pot) are planted to a depth of about 1 cm. Dill needs a large pot as it has a long root.
Step 2
Parsley
There are differences between common leaf parsley and curly parsley. Regular leaf parsley has a stronger aroma and withers faster, however, curly parsley, which is suitable for decorative cultivation in a flower pot, stays green longer when cut. Parsley loves moist soil that is rich in nutrients. In good soil, parsley will grow throughout the year. The best place is partial shade.
Step 3
Chives
Chives are a favorite plant of many gardeners. It is a perennial plant that loves moist (but not wet) calcareous and nutrient-rich soil. For him, both partial shade and a place well-lit by the sun's rays are suitable.
Step 4
Marjoram
This annual plant loves sunny, draft-free places (very sensitive to cold). Marjoram needs loose and humus-rich soil. Care must be taken that the ground is not too dry. It is not recommended to fertilize with marjoram, as this will cause the plant to lose its taste.
Step 5
Oregano (Oregano)
It is better to put a herbaceous perennial in the sun. Oregano needs loose, nutrient-rich soil.
Step 6
Basil
Breeding basil from seeds is somewhat more difficult. It needs a lot of light and warmth and soil rich in nutrients and humus. In the initial stage of growth, it should not be subjected to sharp temperature fluctuations. Also, the plant does not tolerate either wind or drafts. Four-leafed shoots should be planted to ensure good growth. Basil has the most intense aroma shortly before flowering.
Step 7
Mint
This perennial plant prefers both sun and partial shade. Needs humic and moist soil.
Step 8
Rosemary
This plant prefers sandy and not damp soil. Rosemary requires little water and needs a lot of heat and sun.
Step 9
Sage
This perennial plant can be placed both in the sun and in partial shade. Sage does not need nutrient soil - it is quite unpretentious.
Step 10
Thyme
This plant needs lean dry soil. The main condition for its growth is an abundance of sunlight and warmth.
