  1. Growing fern leaf dill, giant flat leaf parsley, cilantro, marjoram, onion chives, garlic, French thyme, oregano, basil (2 types) and curly parsley. Oh, and rosemary of course.

  2. I have literally just ordered off eBay As I am medically shielding. Some organic Italian basil seeds to grow and sage leaves to do the same will let you know and keep you updated of the progress.

  3. Thank you for that very informative video. We live in the South of France and have to water lots, so my herbs are in stone pots. However, I just can't get along with coriander! i cut it often as i use it a lot and it has gone to flower….. now what do I do? I love the bees and thought I'd leave it until the flowers die but then should I cut it? Same with basil? Thank you

  4. My love for growing my own veg & herbs started during lockdown. These videos have been so helpful. I still have all the gear and no idea but I’m learning slowly by watching these videos! Thank you!

  5. How fast does each grow? And what if I want to control how much I grow? Like say I don’t want too much basil (a handful is good), but want lots of parsley and cilantro (in bunches like they come at the grocery stores)?

    Any advice is greatly appreciated! Newbie at gardening but I really want to grow my own herbs!!

  6. Friends, as long as we do not interfere with nature (when we cannot leave the house), I think we can be healthy if we return to nature likewise nature renews itself.
     Especially in winter, I use sage not only as a spice but also as tea.
     When I look at the history, this plant has been used in the treatment of many diseases.
     As the Virgin Mary is mentioned in mythology.

     If you search the internet for 'Benefits of sage
    .you will be very surprised. I wish you all a healthy day.

  7. Hi, having some problems growing curly leaf parsley for the first time. It's refusing to germinate. (I'm trying it on the kitchen window sill.) When you soak the seed in warm water overnight I take it you don't mean boiling?

  8. I live in South Africa on the southern coast and have planted these herbs in pots. Our winter have just been started but the temperature never goes below 15 degrees Celsius. Love my herbs. Thanks for your teachings it helped a lot.

  9. Yes, I grow these and some others. However, I have been supremely unsuccessful in growning basil from seed, so use shop bought and transplant. Any idea why no seed germination, I've tried propagator, sealed plastic bags and no aids. I'm not sure what's left.
    Love you videos though, they're always a treat to watch and so informative. Thanks.

  10. Basil, Parsley and Coriander from seed will geminate and grow for a few days then die. Kept in small pots in an outside greenhouse and kept moist but all die very soon after
