What Herb Seeds to sow in February
Herbs Seed to Sow in February
While planning your vegetable seeds to sow, don't overlook the opportunity to start sowing herb seeds this February, which can add fresh flavours to your meals and vibrant greenery to your garden space. Sowing an indoor herb selection now means you'll have a head start on the growing season.
Begin with herb seed varieties that thrive in cooler temperatures and can be easily transplanted outdoors when the weather warms. Opt for classics like parsley, cilantro, and chives, which can be sown directly into small pots or seed trays. Use quality seed compost and follow the sowing depths specified on the seed packets. Ensure your herb seeds receive plenty of light—supplement with grow lights if natural light is limited—and keep the soil moist, but not waterlogged, to encourage germination.
