🌱 DIY Magical Herb Garden 🌱 Witchcraft 101 🧙‍♀️ & magical qualities 💚🌱

[@lisacapuletco]

I started my herb garden when I bought my very old home in 2010. Since I wanted to get a head start on growing, I bought tray after tray of potted herbs from my local garden center along with seeds to stagger the growing coverage. The nursery owner actually warned me of the invasive nature of some of them, like mint and oregano, and I just said "Good! I want them everywhere because deer won't eat them" I'm so happy that I did because I have herbs everywhere and I give clippings and babies to anyone who wants them. My favorites are chive and lemon thyme because they last about 9 months of the year.

[@marshawargo7238]

ALSO they smell good when walking on them! My sister used mint & one that smells like lemon Pledge as a border of her path from the driveway to the house & koi pond! It's filled in nicely!

[@SunshineDawn7]

That sounds Awesome 😊I love lemon thyme also 🥰

[@genevievelavery4759]

🌿 My favourite herb tip 🌿 You can grow chamomile from the contents of the teabags, as they contain seeds! 🌼 Happy growing! May your harvests be fruitful 😊 🌱

[@AlwynOak]

No way!!! Thanks so much for the tip!! 😃💚🌳🌱🌲

[@moonbabe612]

Wow that’s awesome. I wonder if any others will grow?

[@FamilySmith]

Wow! That is definitely cool info! I'm going to try that!

[@wintersskye2527]

I use a 5 gallon fish tank I purchased at my local pet store (on sale too! Yay!) To start my seedlings in. It has a glass top which allows the LED light (or a hanging grow light) to shine upon the soil and seedlings once they sprout. It helps keep the temperature and humidity perfectly. I live in Canada , Northern Ontario and growing herbs indoors is a MUST during the winter as the months are long and cold and I live in a rural area. I find the fish tank great to start seedlings in and I have a 50 & 80 Gallon that I use as my indoor herbs gardens for the winter. Just thought I'd add this in case anyone has an old fish tank laying around that you could use instead of purchasing a mini-herb garden set up for $250 and up! People sell them for cheap online or on marketplace for fb ect, they are used ,and that's how I got my 50gallon and 80gallon. Paid $30 for the 50g and $50 for the 80g.

I need to start a herb garden this year as I've not done it for a few years as I've been grieving after losing my brother, partner and then my sweet Mum. Gardening really helps me when I'm feeling low. Good luck with your garden and everyone who does one for theirselves. Love your vlogs they help soothe my racing mind. Blessings love and light ❤💛💚✌

So sorry for your loss of your loved ones 🙏I am in the same boat. I lost my Aunt, Dad, Step mum , Cousin and Kitty all since the fall of 2020. I am also looking forward to growing some herbs as it is very therapeutic. Best of luck with your garden and hope you start to heal. Many Blessings 🙏🙏

[@zojila37]

Alwyn! You are one of my favorite people. Thank you for sharing yourself with us. I am excited to share this with you, as you have shared your knowledge with us: If you take a cutting from your Mother's Rosemary plant, pull off the bottom bits and put it in water, it will sprout roots. Almost every time I do this, it works fabulously! I even buy grocery store cut herbs, the ones in the small plastic cartons, and select the best ones. Then I pull off the bottom leaves, recut the bases, and put them in vases until they sprout roots. Then I plant them outside! I have Rosemary, Thyme, Oregano & Sage in my Garden that are 4 years old now!

[@gypsywolf2061]

I’ve used eggshells many times to start my seeds. It’s free and the plants love it! You can also get trays at the dollar store or, if using eggshells, just cut off the top of the container and use that to hold them.

[@Wondering_Ghoul]

I have an oregano plant that is basically a hedge at this point, so watch out for that one too. Maybe give it its own pot. Also: watch out with sage. It's does cleanse a space but is traditionally used to call in ancestral spirits as well. Cedar is better for purely cleaning a space. Love this video! Those wood labels are so cute!

[@michellegoodall9278]

I was at the garden centre yesterday Alwyn buying my herbs so I was delighted to see this. My uncle told me to pour boiling water over parsley seeds once they were in the soil😳I thought he was nuts… but I tried it and it’s the best crop of parsley I ever had! Sounds so odd but it really worked xx

[@jossetteking4967]

I've never heard of this, but I'm going to try it. Does it work with other herbs or only parsley?

[@enchantedstudios1078]

I've had the same rosemary plant in my yard for 12 years. This year I am doing another herb garden

[@agentofchaos4437]

Rosemary and lavender like gritty soil and loves warm weather I have row of lavender in my garden and two very healthy rosemary bushes. you can take cuttings from both too.

[@andreaedwards3632]

When the shoots have about two to three leaves, gently brush them with your hand to strengthen the stem. Mimics the wind

[@jades3654]

I was actually in the process of starting seeds in doors when this started playing. It was a wonderful coincidence. Starting birth her s and veggies because I have short growing season when I live. Happy gardening

I'm also known to kill lavender and rosemary 😔 and I'm with you on the parsley!! I was always eating it out of my grandmas garden as a kid and I do it in my own garden now! Love this video and gardening! 💚🪴

[@1968SemolinaPilchard]

I got really interested in Herbs after visiting an 800 year old herb garden at Michelham Priory in E.Sussex. I was amazed at the knowledge the medieval monks had regarding their medicinal qualities. I hope you have success with your rosemary and lavender this year. x

[@oliviaplants]

Watch out with mugwort! It was already on the property we live on and it is the most invasive plant I’ve ever encountered! We’ve removed it multiple years and the roots break easily and a tiny piece can grow new plants and spread

[@sparksoflight5022]

Amazing video! Thanks so much for sharing your witchy wisdom :) 💖❤️🌺💖🌺greetings from Germany, we love you!

Mugwort is good in a tincture. I put my tincture in grape seed oil its great to help with bruises.

Your Herbal BOS is absolute perfection. I recently bought a book of my own! I’m so excited to start creating in it! I hope this message finds you well. You are so loved and appreciated. 💖💕 Sending you so much love and light dear one.

[@gabrielleszafir]

Oohh, the magick of Spring! I make KZbin videos in a similar spirit as yours (although I'm a bit newer) this got me so excited to film my next Spring video where I'll be planning out my garden and documenting all the world coming back to life (although I live in a very different zone than you so we're still a few weeks behind in Spring's arrival). One thing I've found to be really powerful in recent years has been that in addition to reading about the magical properties others have assigned to herbs and plants -- I sit and meditate/attune to their energy for myself to get my own personal insight. Thank you so much for sharing your magic! 💚

[@VS-ke1qp]

This is my first year I'm going to be starting herbs. This video made me feel a lot better about not having expert knowledge, as like you say, this is something you learn about and continue to build on for the rest of your life. Also, love the idea of setting intentions on your seeds and keeping a Botanical Book of Shadows! Thanks as always Alwyn ❤🌿

[@artmakerforever3510]

Alwyn! Thank you so very much for this one! I love how you give the seeds love and energy before planting them. I'm going to do the same. I started lavender from seed and it is doing really well. Happy on the sunny kitchen window sill, makes me so happy just to look at the seedlings. Can't wait to get out there. I'll be thinking of you while I do. 💝 you are the best teacher. 💝

[@veganvixen6930]

Of the herbs I've grown, rosemary does best. It started as a small plant and flourished into a bush. If I remember correctly, I got it at a supermarket. Had it for a few years and still strong. Seems very resilient. It's drought tolerant and I don't have to water it much. Though I'm in a warm climate and don't get frosts much, it survived a frost. It smells amazing! Thank you also for the idea of compostable starter pots. I have small paper cups I haven't used in years, though I kept them because I don't want to waste. This is a great idea of what I can do with them, start plants, plant them into the ground in the cups, and let the cups biodegrade.

[@SunshineDawn7]

Very nice and helpful video Alwyn 😊Thank you ! Lots of great information. I have found that it is much easier to grow Rosemary from cuttings placed in water or buying a small established plant from the nursery as the seeds take a long time to germinate, about 3 months. I really enjoy your videos . You have a sweet calming nature. Much love and many Blessings and good luck with your gardening 🌿🌿💚💚

[@Laurtew]

I just wanted to say, every week I think I believe more in magic and fairies. Two weeks ago I planted my herbs from cuttings and they were pretty tiny. I just hoped they'd survive. I put little fairy houses around them and some pots of cut glass just because I thought it looked cool. Today I went out and my herbs had gone crazy, tripled in size. I had to split them up and put them in bigger pots. What? So, I thanked the fairies and added some moss to their little houses. I've never had plants do this well. And I think you and the people here who watch your videos might be the only people I know who would understand this. Thank you for opening my eyes to this world.

Hi Alwyn - beautiful content! I want to share a magical technique I learned from the young woman who writes the blog Voice of Nature: before placing seeds in the soil, put the seeds in your mouth and then put the intention into them that these seeds will grow healthy AND develop the qualities that your body will need from them, or that you plan to use them for. Great way to establish a link between yourself and the plants! Love and light to you

[@christinacathcart6577]

First,I love your videos, and the way in which you present your information. In case you don’t already know this, mugwort (artemisia vulgaris) is very invasive and therefore I recommend you plant it in a pot and keep an eye for volunteers in your garden as it spreads vigorously

[@katiemiller3261]

We live in the woods so do not get enough Sun in the courtyard ..we have a very thin garden up the other end of the driveway with Herbs . We moved in 17 years ago and there were small plants and what We though were decorative Bananas ...the Rosemary Bush went berserk and is so large we have to rope it back towards the fence and last Year We had our first bunch of Bananas... this year there is 2 bunches ..one with over 100 tiny tasty Bananas. The Italian Parsley self seeds every year as do the Freesias and Granny's Bonnet flowers .Also have Lemon balm (which is divine in a calming Bath or Tea) MInt, Sage, and Violets .Amazed at how much grows in a tiny garden less than 2 feet wide and the difference they make to Our Meals . We also put in a Bee /Herb Garden across in the small park next to the Kindergarten 7 years ago ...one small Rosemary grew taller than I am, as did a tiny Rose (They are so Tiny but have a heavenly scent , will let most for hips as Rosehips are full of Vit C) that we found growing in a crack in the path...they loved growing together , as did the Lavender bush, Thyme, Italian Parsley, Mint ... unfortunately the Kindy had their fence and retaining wall replaced ...I managed to get the council to move the stone blocks and some of the plants but as they removed them with a digger all of them died! I am so sad .as part from the Bees not having flowers to feed off in Autumn , I would use them for cooking ,also make all my Smudge stick with them , and others in Our tiny street would pick them for their dinner too .Wished I had been told earlier as I would have transplanted them all. I am now planning on having the Bee Garden on the other side as I do not want to grow them next to the treated wood. The Kindy has offered to buy some Herbs for the Garden which is lovely . You video is in perfect timing and has sparked my Energy again so thanks ever so much and brought me out of my Grief for the loss ... Grizabella Moonbeam in New Zealand x

I lived along a river beach....and planted a little zen beach garden...up on the bank above high tide line ..where there grew a huge 7' tall wild old fennel plant....next to the old fennel about 3 feet away, but not totally in its shadow, just a little.......I planted a little 6" tall rosemary plant....and watered it through the hot summer for 2 years....the soil was sandy and gravely with a little potting soil added (very little)...I moved from there 11 years ago and now when going back to look.... the rosemary is still there more than waist high...proudly growing.... next to the old 7 ft. fennel plant....and it is next to a path called the river walk where passerbyers can pick it fresh on their walk. That's the only rosemary I've had such good luck with.....real good drainage , dont overwater, and sunshine...

I has such hard time growing lavender that I just bought a lavender plant this year. The rosemary, basil, and lavender I bottom water because it's just so much easier. I either over or under water. With the bottom watering, they take what they need and it's fun watching them suck up water like a straw. Lol I also got a Venus flytrap but I don't recommend watching videos on them bc people are cruel and feed them live bugs. I catch flys in the water bowl for my cats and feed them those, but just makes sure they're dry first on a paper towel. My flytrap got too cold in my window and when I fed them the wet flys they died. I need bigger pots for my veggies. I love planting things, and watching them grow. Great video Alwyn 🥰🥰

[@MisstressMourtisha]

I also put my flytrap in an area where theres knats and flys in the garden or house and they catch them. The plant itself has an interesting sweet smell. I usually get my seeds from dallor tree. You get 4 packets for a $1. I got gladiolus bulbs this year they're coming up nicely. They almost always grow when I get the cheap heirloom seeds from dallor tree. They're left over from last year that they couldn't sell in other stores. I hope to grow mugwort and moonwort someday. And get a table top glass greenhouse. About 2 ft by 2 ft is the biggest.

Mugwort is one of my favorites. It grows wild here, so no need to plant it. I want to try growing woad, but seeds are not available here.

[@MrsMMcG]

Lavender and rosemary prefer to be in the ground they love sun and not too much watering and mugwort is really easy to grow-mine returns every spring and grows about 4 feet tall in a big black cauldron pot on my back patio. I haven’t tried hyssop, but I bought sorrel last year and it grows like crazy (that one can affect the kidneys so only use occasionally) I think I have all the others same as you Alwyn. Such fun! 🌱☺️🌱

[@lizomen9719]

I've noticed it's harder to start perennial herbs from seed. This includes hyssop for me. Also lavender and rosemary. But the baby plants I get from the garden center do very well when she find a spot they like to be. My mugwort is actually a volunteer plant in my yard which was a pleasant surprise

[@Laurtew]

I made the mistake one year of planting carrots in those peat pots. The carrots were short, fat, and tasted of moss as the pot never really dissolved. This year I've already gotten my herbs in pots. I want to make a window shelf to hang in front of my kitchen window so I can move the herbs inside. My whole front walk is flanked by mint. I love having it there. However, if it gets stepped on my entryway smells like breath mints. :) I decided this year I want to learn all about herbs and how to use them. My son says I'm going to be a herbologist. :) Do you have any suggestions for good sources to learn about the uses of herbs?

Beautiful herb garden Alwyn! I so enjoy your inspiring lifestyle. Hyssop and Rosemary are excellent for your respiratory system. Hyssop tea is helpful when you have bronchitis or upper respiratory issues. Basil tea helps calm a cough. Coriander is not only a great herb to cook with but is also a natural diuretic which is great for our monthly menses when we are bloated and have too much water weight.
