How to grow fenugreek

In this short video, ‪@projecttreecollard‬ shows how they grow Fenugreek leaves as an herb in a large container. This DIY garden project could be done with other kitchen herbs and spices as well. Fenugreek, or Trigonella foenum-graecum is an annual plant in the family Fabaceae, with leaves consisting of three small leaflets. Like other plants in the family, Fenugreek is a nitrogen fixer.
Fenugreek leaves is used as a herb (dried or fresh leaves), spice (seeds), and vegetable (fresh leaves, sprouts, and microgreens). The chemical Sotolon gives Fenugreek the distinctive maple syrup smell. Fenugreek is believed to have been brought into cultivation in the Near East and was used in ancient Greece and India.
Be aware that some people with peanut allergy also react to fenugreek (both are legumes and therefore closely related).
