Do you grow your own herbs or buy them?
Last year I decided to grow my own and see what happens. My plan was to hopefully grow them all year round but by the end of September they were starting to die. I am not sure if it was because I had too small of pots or because I kept forgetting to water them. My husband said that it was because of the latter. He probably is right, but I won't tell him that.
I do plan to plant more this year. I might even branch out to a few different types. We will see what happens. I really should get doing them. I do have the pots ready.
I took small clay pots and spray painted them a blue and green colour as that is the colours of my kitchen and pantry. I had some scrapbooking letters that I used to label the pots, so that I would know what was growing and not mix them up.
As you see I planted Anise, Oregano, Parsley, Basil and Thyme. These are the spices that I use a lot of. This year I am not sure about the Anise as I didn't know when I should be harvesting them and I waited to long..
I had to replant the Thyme as it didn't grow..
I loved having fresh herbs to use in my baking and cooking and can't wait have them again. This year I am going to try and dry them and crush them. Hopefully that will work.
