Thanks for the tip about the typical caps being the measuring instrument. That is really helpful!!!

I agree with your reasoning for fertilizing containers growing perennials. Makes perfect sense. I'm trying oregano this year in a large container. Thank you for the great idea!

I have no luck with dill it always bolts. I’m trying it this year in a shadier spot. And now I will start fertilizing too. :)

your herbs look amazing! I agree with fertilizing more often because they are outside in pots, thanks for the idea.

You definitely can fertilize your perennial herbs in pots but only half as often as the annuals. They definitely thrive in dry, poor soil (most come from the hot, dry and rocky Mediterranean climate and are not accustomed to regular water and nutrition. Your herb collection is gorgeous and healthy looking!

Thank you! Do you think once every two weeks would be a better schedule?
@NicolesGardenNS2 жыл бұрын
@@ChicagoGardener Yes I think so, and a slightly lighter strength on top of the reduced schedule as well.

Yes I fertilize absolutely everything in my containers. It helps the soil not to be too shabby and hold water. Being in zone 10B for me, I need the soil to hold more water than not. I found general guidelines dont typically work for my climate. When I did follow them, my plants didnt do well. Just found your channel! Would love to see more tours and harvest to table vids ❤️❤️❤️

Your herbs all look amazing! We would definitely fertilize the perennial herbs in containers just because the nutrients would slowly leech out with every watering. Therefore, we have to put them back so your logic makes perfect sense to us. Ours herbs are in the ground though and we don’t have as many varieties as you do.

Herbs looks lovely and healthy. I also use Epsom salt, banana skin blended and egg shells and I find working perfect for me and the area I live in.

I would continue to fertilize the perennial herbs but less frequently. Especially with liquid fertilizer.
@ChicagoGardener2 жыл бұрын
Thank you!! Would you recommend once every two weeks or even less frequently for those?
@2013bmwf800gs2 жыл бұрын
@@ChicagoGardener I'd say even less. I have some lavender that thrives in really sketchy soil that's mostly concrete. I only fertilize a few times a year with something like fish emulsion.

Grow big is not organic. Their big bloom is though, look for the OMRI listing on the label if you want organic.
