AdventurerJohannaHere you can see how you can easily conjure up your own little herb garden for the window sill. With the homemade herbs you can refine great delicacies from the kitchen, such as an Italian tomato sauce or a refreshing homemade lemonade. The edible flowers of the capuchin cress are also ideal for decorating salads.
All you need for this is our great mini greenhouse or another growing bowl, soil, seeds of various herbs and water. Have fun trying out and watching your own little herb garden.
Then you fill the mini greenhouse with soil.
Next, gently press the earth with your finger.
Now you put the mini greenhouse in a waterproof bowl or on a kitchen board.
Next, pour the earth to moisten it.
Gardener tip:
?? The earth should not swim in the water. It may take the earth a few minutes to absorb the water.
Now you need the seeds of herbs. Choose your favorite herbs or experiment and try out new herbs for you.
Here basil, thyme, lemon balm and capuchin cress are used.
Now you sow the seeds on the ground with your fingers. Sow the seeds in the hollows of the egg box.
Gardener knowledge:
?? Basil, thyme, lemon balm are light germs. The seeds must lie on the earth and are not covered with earth.
?? Do not sow the seeds too densely. In each trough she sows about 8 seeds of a variety.
Next, take the seeds of the capuchin cress.
Now you push a hollow into the earth with your finger.
In each trough she places 1 - 2 seeds of capuchin cress and easily covers them with soil.
Gardener knowledge:
?? The capuchin cress belongs to the dark germs. Their seed must lie under the ground.
Sprays the seeds gently with water.
Gardener tip:
?? Uses a spray bottle at the beginning. The hard jet of a watering can would be too strong. It would rinse away the small seeds and they would all accumulate in a hollow. Thus they would lie too dense and germinate badly and grow.
At the end you close your mini greenhouse and place it in a warm and bright place, for example on the window sill or in the bathroom.
Gardener knowledge:
?? In your mini greenhouse there is a warm and humid climate. This is perfect to germinate seeds and grow small plants.
?? You must keep your seedlings moist regularly. Spray them with water from the spray surface. But beware! The seeds do not want to swim and small plants do not like wet feet.
?? Once a day you open the lid of your mini greenhouse and thus provide fresh air. Because otherwise it can quickly mold in your mini greenhouse.
After a few days the first green tips show up.
Garden tip:
?? Read on your herbal card how many days your seeds need from sowing to germination. Some varieties germinate faster, others take longer.
?? Even if your seeds take a long time to germinate, do not lose patience and keep them moist enough.
The longer you put them and pour them, the bigger they get.
?? Watch exactly how your plants look at the beginning. First, the germ leaves show up. They are smooth and symmetrical. Only the leaves that grow next have the shape typical of the herb variety.
Waiting was worth it. Gradually the plants grow up.
?? Garden tip:
When the first leaves show up, it's time to pick the plants.
Have fun sowing, watering and caring for herbs!
