Whisky Barrel Sizes
I think the most beautiful growing consensus I've seen of herbs, someone had taken an old whiskey barrel timber and cut holes in the part at different levels. Was planted then, various types of herbs in the holes. You can grow herbs in almost any type of container. terracotta, plastic, metal and wood are adequate. galvanized buckets of different sizes very well as a potted herb garden design. There are some beautiful settings with different animals and porcelain figurines.
So if you have no garden space in your yard, or you live in the tenth floor of an apartment house, you have no excuse to try their hand at raising some herbs. Once you get started you will be surprised how soon you cling to your plants. Some people even talk to their plants as water and care for them. And it is good for plants, and for you. When you are talking to your plants and breathe on them, you are feeding. Plants take carbon dioxide (breath) as food, and then exhale oxygen for you. I think the creator really knew what he was doing when he put together this world.
Growing herbs in pots is a handy way to start for a rookie. You can start a few plants on the windowsill of the kitchen. It adds beauty to your kitchen, and you can not get much cooler than the patch of plants herbs to add flavor to your meals. You can even grow different herbs in the pots it. Tomillo, mint, lemon, rosemary and sage are a good combination to put in a bowl. This will make a beautiful arrangement and an excellent gift for a friend. Only research that plants grow better together. Some time with a root system need to be planted outside, or in large containers.
Grass planting
A land of light with a mixture of compost or rotted manure your best for your potted herbs. It is possible that want to add some coarse sand or garden soil to provide adequate drainage. It takes very little fertilizer for herbs. If desired, add a little organic plant food once a year.
Usually put a layer of gravel in the bottom of my pots or containers, making sure the holes drain at the bottom for excess water to escape. Do not want our plants to get the roots wet and cause root rot. Try a colorful variety of plants and not too much in the same pot. Just use more pots. The herbs are increased in size very quickly. Here are some herbs that are easy to grow and offer many different uses:
Sage – Many different colors to choose from and add flavor to many different dishes.
Romero – Pretty, colorful flowers and makes a good cup of hot tea. It is usually cooked with lamb and other fatty meats.
Thyme – Pronounced "time." It has many different uses, from tea to dishes. In addition, many medicinal uses.
Chamomile – This is an excellent Tea to calm nerves and help you rest at night.
Santamaria de Oro – Santamaría A cup of hot tea is often used to relieve a headache persistent.
Chives – You can add onions to eggs, meat dishes, and has not tried to onions in a hot baked potato?
If the beginning, you may want to try only a few plants, but if you like to raise flowers and herbs as much as I do, will soon be looking for ways to add more plants to your collection.
I hope your potted garden adventures enjoyable and rewarding. Happy Gardening.
