Hello there! Iām Makayla Anderson, a newbie gardener and Iāve recently posted a video on how to start seedlings! Iād love it if you gave it a watch and appreciate any and all feedback! https://youtu.be/nWHpX3yu2Dc
Why on earth can't these videos get to the point straight away in sted of bs-ing through minutes of useless information. For god's sake, tell me how to plant a herb and how to water it and that is it. 1 minute video made into a 8 minute s…tpile!
I just punched "how to grow herbs" into the youtube search bar and clicked on the top video without checking which channel uploaded it. Then, once that piano riff played and I heard chef johns voice chime in, i got the biggest smile on my face!!!!!
Love this channel, and silly me for not checking food wishes for a herb-growing video first! thanks again chef john!
The Hardest herb I've ever tried to grow is Marjoram. This year I used the last of my seed packets and they didn't germinate.. I've calked around to the different nurseries in the area and the seed company that my seeds came from… No Luck… If anyone out there has any or knows where I can purchase some … Please……put a message here . Thank you.
I always have it around my mauth.my own mother told me I got herpes from her.but herbs from Dr emuakhe all of a sudden clear the difference and never experienced it again…
I would like to see what this herb garden looks like now. The pot at 5:47 looks crowded, especially with the rosemary and sage so close together. Those are going to grow into two very large shrubs.
I get a joy in my heart when I'm cooking dinner, and the thought pops into my head, "This dish could use a little bit of thyme! (or whatever herb it might be)" I run outside to the backyard, happy as a clam, and pull off what I need from the herb garden. It's so much fun cooking like that.
I know this video's 7 years old now. However: You actually don't want to get the "largest and most established plant you can find" when shopping at box stores. Large plants are spent plants that will put all their energy into leaf and bud production and are likely to bolt once planted (or suffer greater transplant shock). When buying new, you want short, stubby plants with thick stems (for the plant type) and good, healthy looking roots. That way it'll put more of its energy towards root production first, and suffer less transplant shock- which is what you want when initially buying to transplant into your garden from a grower or box store.
If doing small pot container gardening like that, too, you DON'T want to put that many rocks in the bottom as it actually impedes water drainage and slows the drainage rate as soon as water comes into contact with it. All you need is a piece or two specifically to cover the hole to prevent dirt loss. Anything more than that is overkill and more likely to waterlog your roots- on top of unnecessarily taking up VERY valuable root space your plants need in the tiny amount of space they have to grow to begin with. You also want to "overfill" your pot all the way up TO the brim when fresh planting a brand new pot; over time the soil will settle, reducing the amount of root space it has, which can lead to rootbinding and strangulation, increase repotting time, etc. in general you want to plant on WET soil anyways- not dry like that. But at the very least, do overfill dry then water down at minimum (by the by, that wasn't nearly enough water. When first transplanting you want to give them far more water than that, and do so for the first WEEK).
You also don't have to double pot to force stunting for more leaves- especially if you're not using much to begin with? Traditional Culinary Herbs are literally bred to be regularly harvested in the first place … Simply just harvesting them at the appropriate rate (which for most herbs is usually weekly or every other week) will encourage continuous new leaf growth as long as you're doing it properly.
I'm … Ultimately going to stop there. I'm very glad this video is 7 years old, but my heart kind of breaks for anyone stumbling across this today thinking it's good information for today's gardening; it'll get you passable herbs if you don't know any better (clearly, since he did it and thought it was right enough to share; the old "it worked for me therefore I must be doing something right" fallacy) … But if you want great herbs, it's really just not the way to go.
I've come to this channel for recipes for many years, so imagine my pleasant surprise when searching on YouTube to start an herb garden and there you are again! Thank you for all the help over the years, Chef John!

This was helpful and easy to follow. Thank you. Any different tips for Thai basil?

I would not have put the oreganos together myself… both are in the mint family so will likely mix and take over.
I know this is an old video, but it is a huge help to a beginner like me! You're a wellspring of knowledge!
