    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!

    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.

    Pro tip: keep the mint far far far away from the other plants and in their own separate soil. They are incredibly invasive and will overtake all other plants if given the opportunity. Also, if you live in a climate with a cold winter (so, you know, not California), you can always bring these plants inside during the cold seasons so that they last for years. I've had rosemary growing outdoors in the summers and indoors during the winters for the past few years, and it brings such amazing warmth and vibrancy to my kitchen during those dreary months.

    I agree! I am originally from a farm. So, I like gardening a lot. Once, I bought some heirloom tomatoes from a Safeway grocery store. I kept some of the seeds from the tomatoes. Later on, I remembered I had them. I planted them. They got really tall. In my area of Canada, we have a growing season from May to around September ( if it doesn't snow like it did in early May, before getting hot ), it is ample time to get a good garden. I have an east facing window, so I can also plant things like basil, oregano and rosemary inside.

    Great looking herb container and pretty clay pots. Just to note that herbs like chives and especially basil still do require good amount of fertiliser and they do need alkaline soil to thrive, basil especially thrives better if it's potted with rich but well draining soil. Mint needs moist environment and it's better to be left in a part shade (morning sun and afternoon shade).

    Cool! Some varieties of mint can be invasive and "competitive" with each other, so have that in mind when planting them, better have them in an individual pot! Also, when cutting the tips of the plants, if you're not using them right away, you can place them in a glass with water under the sun, it depends on the plant but after a few days or couple of weeks they'll start growing roots and be ready to plant :)

    My little boy and I have been growing the same herb garden for years. Thyme and rosemary (and strawberries) will keep indefinitely. While our parsley and chives drop seeds and regrow in spring. For everything else we buy a packet of seeds for a buck and just chuck em in the soil every spring. Low maintenance and way way cheaper than buying a clamshell of thyme for $3 when you only ever need like 5 sprigs at most.

    Thank you SO much for doing this video, Chef John! I recently started my own little herb pot :) A couple of questions: 1) How do you store the fresh herbs if you're not ready to use them? 2) How do you keep cilantro from dying? [mine died]

    ***** Hi! I like to store my herbs in a glass on my window sill. However, some of the soft herbs like cilantro, dill, and chervil do best when washed, wrapped loosely in a paper towel, put in a plastic bag and stored in the produce drawer of your refrigerator. Cilantro is an herb which MUST be planted by seed every 2 weeks to use it regularly (continuous harvest). It does not last long and will quickly "bolt" and go to seed. You will notice the leaves get very small and it begins stretching up through the center. It will produce flowers next. After it produces flowers, it will produce seed (tiny green balls). They will turn brown and then you harvest it, let it dry. Guess what you have? Dried Coriander! This is what you buy when you purchase ground coriander in the market in the US. Happy Gardening! :) I will upload a video on how to grow Cilantro very soon. It is one of my favorite herbs.

    Rainbow Gardens wow--thanks! Yeah, my cilantro looked somewhat perky when I planted it, but then quickly fell flat and then went squishy and brown. Ew. heh. And you know it may be a regional thing or something to do with our humidity here in Alabama [?] because all the cilantro I've seen for sale around here was lanky looking or lying brown in the dirt like mine. p.s. I'll be on the lookout for your video!

    ***** Great! I am from Georgia and now reside in North Carolina. Cilantro does not like the heat of the south. My advice (until I get the video compiled) buy a pack of cilantro seed and observe your yard during the heat of the day. Look for an area which only receives about 3 hours of direct sun and plant some seeds there. Water every other day for about 2 weeks and they will pop up! Repeat and plant some more seed when they pop up and just continue until late November. :)

    I planted my rosemary bush about three years ago in a raised bed garden, and use it all year long. It's time to replace some of the other plants, like my oregano and thyme and parsley, and the basil is almost ready to go out into its spots, but in a raised bed, I get about two years out of each plant before I need to replace them. Except for the rosemary; that thing just keeps growing and smells so good. Love that plant.

    ***** Some plants will actually come back annually if you just leave them be through the colder months. Like our Oregano and Parsley have come back every time for the past 3 years. I will say though, that I think oregano should have its own planter, because it definitely can get out of hand quickly.

    LOVE growing my own herbs. I have a small herb garden with rosemary, thyme, french tarragon, greek oregano, garlic chives, chives and sage. I have to plant the basil under a screened "cage" to keep the insects from eating it all. It's more than I need, so when I pinch them back several times over the growing season, if I can't use it, I dry it and put them in jars to use over the winter.
