How to Sow Your Seeds
Begin your Herbal Brew Set by sowing seeds indoors from February to October or directly outside after the last frost in well-drained soil. These tea herbs thrive in sunny locations such as window boxes, balconies, containers, or garden beds, where they require minimal effort to look after.
Sowing
Sow the herbal tea seeds directly into warm, damp, and well-drained soil, lightly covering them to aid germination. Keep the seeds in a sunny spot to encourage strong sprouting.
Growing
Once seedlings emerge, thin them to ensure good airflow and robust growth, ideal for plants growing up to 30 cm tall. Most thrive in full sun but appreciate some light afternoon shade during the summer growing months of June to September.
Plant care
Water regularly to maintain moist soil without causing waterlogging, supporting healthy development. Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier plants and extend the harvest period, which typically runs through summer. After flowering, cut back lightly to keep the herbs productive, and protect them from frost to encourage perennial returns.
