Holy beautifulness master gardener!!! Idk why it took so long to find you! Very impressive! Will go back and watch everything. Thank you so much for the beautiful work. Very encouraging.
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed it. Here is the most recent one. I’ll be uploading a video about the herbs we grow soon. If you’re planting mints keep them in their own pot or they will spread. ruclips.net/video/oFlsUY1wrtg/видео.html
@@LearnToGrow1 Thanks! I do grow mint. I actually found one that I love more than anything and it’s pineapple mint. It keeps dying on me for some reason just out of the blue. It will look so healthy and beautiful and one morning I’ll wake up and it will be brown and dead looking. Thankfully I always take cuttings and have more ready to start so I’ve got one more plant left from it I’ve started from cuttings. I have a harder time with mint than any of the other herbs. Even my chocolate mint doesn’t look healthy. My basil, oregano and everything else is beautiful. Oh, my lemon balm gets mealybugs a lot. 🤷🏻♀️
You're welcome, Candace and thank you! I actually have a book coming out. Would you be interested in taking a look? I can send the link here, thanks! Misilla
Girl we are thankful for the tips on growing herbs hope my plants will grow good because some died I will prepare the way you did I am living in linden town Guyana a sunny country thanks 🙏 for sharing let us keep planting 😊
So happy to hear that you’re finding the videos helpful! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. You can reach me at Instagram under “learntogrow”. Have a great weekend and take care also. Thanks for watching! Misilla
Thanks for this video. I am VERY NEW to gardening and would like to start with herbs. I still have a few questions after watching your video though. I see you planted parsley, basil, and mint in individual pots instead of in the bed with other herbs. I know you said that with mint it’ll take over so is it the same with basil and parsley? Is that why you planted them in individual containers? How about cilantro? I would really like to know which herbs are ok to grow together in my wood bed since I don’t have a lot of room for separate containers. Also, what’s under the soil in your bed? I recently got gifted a handmade wood bed and I’m not sure how to set it up 🙈 How does the water drain from the soil? I know these are probably silly questions but like I said I am VERY NEW to gardening. And lastly can I add anything else to my bed that isn’t herbs? Like small tomatoes or chilis? Can I add chives with other herbs into the bed?
Hi Yes, mint is best planted on its own as they spread via rhizomes/stems. I usually plant herbs together with similar soil and light requirements. Mediterranean or woody herbs such as rosemary, lavender, prefer well-drained, sandy loam and soft herbs such as cilantro, parsley, and basil can be planted together as they require moderately moist, well-drained soil. Yes most herbs can be planted with other crops..basil and chives are great with tomatoes and may repel insect pests. Here is my recent video on growing herbs in containers. Make sure to water moderately till they are established. Use well-draining potting soil and add compost or worm castings to your garden bed before planting. Hope this helps! Also, here is a link to my book with information you might find helpful, you can preorder it now if you like. Thanks and have a great weekend!

Been busy!!! Ahhh thank you for your continued support! 🙏🏼 I looked at the analytics and it said I gained over 7k subs this month? I’m bad at keeping track. Thanks again. Enjoy your weekend!
Nice overview of starting a culinary herb garden, Misilla. I really should have had this information before adding mints to our garden. LOL The struggle to get rid of it is a yearly ritual now. Take care, Rob
Looks awesome. Few questions. Is one seedling per kind will grow big bush, or should I put a few of them together? Should I use compost or the soil is enough? I'm growing outside in my garden
Hi Each plant need proper spacing depending on variety. If planted too close they will compete for nutrients and water. Make sure to read the information on the seed packet for spacing, Yes amend the soil with compost to give it some organic matter that microbes will break down to release nutrients. Compost also improve soil structure, porosity and drainage. Thanks for watching!
Thank you. This was helpful. My biggest challenge is deer. I love Basil but have read that deer love it. Would it be protected if I planted herbs that they don’t like in the same pot as the basil? If so, what do you recommend? I’m thinking chives, perhaps dill?
@@LearnToGrow1 Thanks. I will be planting mint in its own pot beside the others. I hope it helps repel the deer. BTW. I live north of you on Vancouver Island.

How do you naturally get rid of the gnats and other flying bugs when keeping plants and herbs in your apartment? My first thought was too dilute some spearmint or peppermint oil in some water and a spray bottle. And then spray it lightly onto the surface of the soil. Under the actual plants that are growing out of the soil. Will this harm the herb or plant itself? Or maybe some deluded lemon extract or something like that.
Hi We plant several varieties of herbs and flowers to attract beneficial insects or to deter them. Healthy plants are generally less susceptible to disease and pests. You can try worm castings compost tea as a pesticide spray or neem oil solution. Thanks for watching!
Hi! Most potting mix already contain compost or fertilizer, so it isn't necessary to add more at planting. You can add fertilizer in the summer or as needed if the leaves turn yellow. Thanks for watching!
What type of rosemary are you growing? I've tried growing it 3 times, twice in my planters and once in the ground and it dies in January every single time.
Hi we have Tuscan Blue. It’s hardy to 15 F. You can try other that are hardier if you live in a cold climate. Those two are hardy to 0 to -10 F: Arp and Athens Bluee Spire .
Appreciate the info, It felt a little hectic watching. so some thoughts take or leave them. Maybe make next vid more solid. Group your info, Maybe start with a generalized overview of soil, water, light, pests, symbiots for plants, then how you grouped them for planting and why. Then talk about the woody herbs each plants needs and tolerances. Then the softer herbs. Then how to transplant, etc.
Hi, Here's a link to an old video. Just make sure the bottom part of your herb cuttings have nodes where you remove the leaves so they root. ruclips.net/video/WA7GVpSwezE/видео.html
Do u just pinch off most parts of the rotting stems or dig the plant out to remove stem completely? Cos my basil and coriander cuttings are still attracting flies. And those flies are attracting spiders. 😂 waiting for my neem oil to arrive. I guess that would work right? 🤔
Hi yes remove the dead stems and leaves. Make sure the soil drains well and put the plants where they can get at least 6 hours of sun and good air flow. Thanks for watching! Misilla
Hi they do take a long time to germinate, sometimes three weeks to over a month. If you can get cuttings from a neighbor, friend or family member you can start some and you will get a head start. You may also find herb sprigs for sale at your local grocery store and you can root those as well, it has worked for me. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching! Misilla
Lol 😂 I’ve pronounced it both ways several times and I still get people telling to say it with the “H” silent. In the US the “H” is silent, but I agree with “herbs”.
This is amazing thank you! Just learning herb gardening so I can learn herbalism

Love pineapple mint! Try not to overwater...once established they are drought tolerant. Only water when the top inch feels dry to touch. ☺️
@@LearnToGrow1 Oh thank you, I had no idea it was drought tolerant. That might be one of the problems.
I never thought I could grow my own herbs, but your videos made it so easy!

I’m still pulling out mint that I planted in the ground a few years ago! Lesson learned. Have a great weekend Rob!
Thanks for watching!
I’m starting an herb garden- thanks so much for the tips. What soil brand do you recommend?
You’re welcome! I like organic potting soil such as one by Black Gold or Kellogg. Thanks for watching!

Hi Linda, Yes, chives would make a great companion, as well as cilantro and all three thrive in similar conditions.
Dill and mint planted in their own pots have strong aromas that deer don’t like.
@@LearnToGrow1 Thanks.
I don’t like cilantro much so I can understand why deer don’t. 😉😂
@@LearnToGrow1 Thanks.
I will be planting mint in its own pot beside the others. I hope it helps repel the deer.
BTW. I live north of you on Vancouver Island.

Hi have you tried Bt as a soil drench? It kills their larvae. I also try to bottom water and let the top two inches of soil dry in between.
How do you kill the bugs without using pesticides? I want to use a natural pesticide. Thank you
Hi We plant several varieties of herbs and flowers to attract beneficial insects or to deter them. Healthy plants are generally less susceptible to disease and pests. You can try worm castings compost tea as a pesticide spray or neem oil solution. Thanks for watching!
Will these eventually take over that container? Will you have to take out cut them back and refresh the soil each year?
Hi they won’t grow large if they’re in a small pot. So prune dead stems in late winter while they’re dormant.
Thank you for making this so easy. Should I add fertilizer to already prepared soil?
Hi! Most potting mix already contain compost or fertilizer, so it isn't necessary to add more at planting. You can add fertilizer in the summer or as needed if the leaves turn yellow. Thanks for watching!

Great video. Im going to do this in some wall mounted outdoor planter boxes. Should my boxes of herbs have drainage holes in them?
Hi there, Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, all pots need drainage holes. Roots sitting in water will lead to rot. Thanks for watching!
Do u just pinch off most parts of the rotting stems or dig the plant out to remove stem completely? Cos my basil and coriander cuttings are still attracting flies. And those flies are attracting spiders. 😂 waiting for my neem oil to arrive. I guess that would work right? 🤔

I enjoyed your video. Would Thai basil be planted with the parsley group or the woody group?
Thanks Terry! Thai basil has soft stems so I would plant it with the parsley group.
All thanks to Dr Itepu on RUclips for helping me to get rid of my HSV1 &2, may God strength you sir
