| There are few things in life as good as your own herb, grown by yourself at home out in the
garden and indoors in pots... Oregano, Dill, Basil, Sage and other herbs are all easy to grow.
Mint will take over the whole yard if you let it. Fresh mint and celantro are incredible in salads
and oriental dishes. But it all comes down to a truly motivational herb that is your friend and
mine, a great healer and teacher to those that know it well.
Most people think of gardens as a seasonal, yearly project, but it"s actually less time consuming
and more rewarding to keep the garden going year round. If one were to attempt to grow year
round, indoor gardening techniques will be needed at least during winter to keep the garden
producing. You will have herb fresh at all times, there is no worry of mass storage through the
winter and spring, it requires less space, and once established, requires only minimal attention
every week to keep it producing at optimal levels.
The best part of being a gardener is it connects you to the earth. It connects you with nature, and
is spiritually enriching. Try giving your plants energy by beaming good thoughts and energy at
them every time you visit them. I find this helps me as much as it helps them; my plants seem to
respond to it favourably. |
