I'm really enjoying your videos. You make things look so easy. I just started dill, sweet basil, cilantro, and red and yellow bell peppers from seed. Growing indoors. Do you have a video on transplantng the seedlings?

[@crypticsoul]

Awwwe! Give that precious dog lots of pets and hugs!

[@GardeningInCanada]

Any cold climate gardeners here? 🇨🇦🤓👩‍🔬

[@travelchannel304]

Trying to learn it. Im in Mid Ohio Valley in Western WV/SE OH.

[@realizeyourart]

Yep. I am in Zone 5. I have my herb garden in the greenhouse and house

[@CaliKim29]

Way to go making it work for your climate! Thanks for stopping by!

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Gardening in Canada - thanks for gardening with me from Canada! There are several Canadians who watch the Monday livestreams, each week at noon, PT. There's always lots of great interaction, sharing of info and tips in the chat. Would love to have you join us. Thanks for the visit - hope you can grow some herbs this winter. :)

[@CaliKim29]

Glad your gardening with me from Ohio! Are you able to grow herbs outside or are you moving them indoors? Thanks for stopping by!

[@TheNakidGardeners]

These are some easy herbs that we grow each year. This was our first year having swallowtail cats on our dill. It was fun to watch them go to work and then turn into butterflies. thanks for sharing.

[@eblake3617]

My mother has had the same patch of chives that have been growing year after year for over 40 years! We're in Canada

[@CaliKim29]

Awwwwww. Hello Canada! Thanks for watching/commenting. Kim

[@thehealingberrygarden9608]

Nothing better than herbs in the garden - in my opinion. And so easy to grow! A wonderful video for new and experienced gardeners.

[@CaliKim29]

Thanks for visiting, healingberrygarden, so glad you enjoyed it! Do you grow herbs indoors or outdoors in winter?

[@annlanphere3663]

I am planning an herb garden. I hope to learn as much as possible about growing and cooking with herbs. Thanks for your video.

[@wranther]

Look at you getting all set up with a soon to be tasty herb garden Kim! Up this way there are are 5 inches of snow with a light snow still falling. If you were thinking that 12 degrees sounds about right, you would be spot on! Below zero tonight. Soon to be starting a few herb plants inside here, one I fetch some planters from under the snow. Happy Gardening! -Bob...

[@lonblair1009]

I will definitely plant a larger kitchen herb garden this year. Zone 7b. Thank You!

[@CaliKim29]

Good luck! And do keep us all posted here-it's a great group for support and insight! CK

[@denisebrady6858]

Kim I grow all my own herbs & vegetables, my herb garden is so prolific - I dry all of my herbs & grind them up for rubs etc- my family & neighbors love it. I have a rosemary bush that I started probably 15yrs ago from a tiny seedling I purchased, it is now probably 5ft tall & has spread about 12ft & has actually become a hedge ( amazing ) but beautiful. Cheers Denise- Australia

[@CaliKim29]

That is awesome, Denise! Growing your own herbs is so rewarding and I'm sure your friends LOVE that you share your abundance with them! Wow, that's some rosemary plant! ;)

[@karacurranmontellano5740]

Please do a followup video after those herbs grow in a bit! I would love to see how they turn out!

[@karterjoseph1300]

Me too I hate when the show how to plant 🌱 but don’t show the progression.

[@leonleese4919]

If you don’t like Chives use spring onions dozens of different varieties you can even use onion seed when you thin a row of onion use them until they are too big or the flavour is too strong. I’m in zone 6b on the north east coast of wales.

[@thersgarden3144]

Thank you. I wasn’t going to bother with anymore herbs until next year but you’ve inspired to plant a few so thank you much! 😊

I'm going to try and grow some Basil indoors under growlights. I adore seeing Mac sitting behind the reinforcements. He looks like a Doggie news anchor!!! 😂😍🥰🌱

Yes he does 🥰

[@CaliKim29]

LOL, love it, Joanne! Yes, Mac was sitting pretty, wasn't he? Enjoy your indoor basil!

[@blackpackhomesteadchrisand7337]

MS. Kim has been busy! You got all your garden cleaned up nice. Time to fill those spaces up with something tasty. If you could only have one herb what would it be?

[@kele1264]

I used to grow a lot of herbs. I hope to do so again. I've never had luck overwintering any of them (can't do it inside). But now that my NJ location is rated zone 7, I'll give it another try, protected by a cold frame that I hope to make following the instructions of Jame Prigioni. I had no idea that I should break up cilantro seeds! Great tips! Thank you!

[@CaliKim29]

Hello Ke, hope you can give it another go! Protecting your herbs with a cold frame should really help, especially with the hardier perennial herbs. Let me know how it goes - enjoy!

[@kitchenwithfarzanaamin2835]

Very very beautiful video friend

[@roserizzo3094]

Very nice. Would like to see them in full bloom! I grow all kinds of herbs and like to find out about rarer ones.

[@wyattspop]

Hey Kimba, thought I'd tell you as one of your "poster boys" (I've followed Kim's advice all year), my garden was being dessimated by leaf miners, every plant I have except herbs . I used your Neem/Peppermint Oil last week and not one single leaf since has been chewed by leaf miners. Amazing results, thanks my friend. Tommy

[@CaliKim29]

Great to hear, Tommy - so glad it worked well for you! Thanks for stopping by!

I have a huge Rosemarie plant it's about 5 yrs old but I love it including pollinator, right now I have many more herbs in containers mint, dill, mejorana, parsley, sage, thyme, cilantro and I want to keep adding many more ☺️

[@ellenkuang8853]

I was just planning on seeding new herbs today since it's supposed to have sporadic showers today. Also, garlic chives are a must in homemade dumplings/potstickers!

[@CaliKim29]

Perfect timing! TThey'll love some rain to start them off. MMMM, getting hungry -bet garlic chives put homemade potstickers over the top! Thanks for watching!

[@stevendowden2579]

lovely video i enjoy growing herbs

[@containergardener8386]

Just transplanted all my herbs from outside to my indoor planter as we get ready for winter here in Canada! Thanks for a very timely video! Planted rosemary, thyme and mint.probably will add oregano and basil... I’ve really struggled with cilantro...though I love it.

[@kimcarpenter6897]

I live in Indiana and just moved a lot of my herbs which were in pots indoors to a plant stand. If my south facing window doesn’t give them enough sun I might get a grow light.

[@LiliansGardens]

I am glad I found this. Thanks

[@sherilynnelacny8551]

[@chamelaroo4683]

I started rosemary from seed. I only got about 30% of the seeds to germinate. Now that I have some plants going I hope I can propagate them from cuttings easier. Also, Mac is such a good boy.

[@eb1684]

He is a good boy but he dosen't help much.

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Catherine - good for you for hanging in there with Rosemary! You should have good luck with propagating cuttings. Mac was sitting pretty for this video! :). Thanks for stopping by!

Lol, he likes to think he does, though!

[@SpiceyKy]

Couldn't grow dill outside all summer in the heat. Even in full shade. Trying again thanks to you.

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Spicey Ky - dill likes cooler weather, thrives under 80 F. Glad you're going to try again - let me know how it goes! Thanks for stopping by!

I love your channel so so much i just started planting my herbs but here is South Africa 🇿🇦 is so hot we having heat wave i hope it wnt damage my plants

Glad you're enjoying our videos - appreciate your support. Have you ever used shade cloth? Cover your veggies with shade cloth to protect them in the heat. Here's a video with all the details, bit.ly/CaliKimEarlyHeatWave. Good luck!

[@FF-ub7bn]

What plant do you have cut back For the winter in your herb garden? Also can I dig up my basil and transplant into a pot indoors for winter?

Cool vid! Do you ever grow Lemon Thyme? It smells and tastes amazing.

[@CaliKim29]

Never grown that variety - will have to give it a go! Thanks for the recommendation!

[@lorifitzgibbon3085]

I'm in zone 5b, SW PA mtn area. I would like to add herbs to my veggie garden also. 1. As a pest deterrent and 2 as a yummy addition to garden. I'm getting a little overwhelmed with all this. What is the best way to add them?

[@marieheffern1575]

Love this! I like your design, and can't wait to see how it grows. No sage? I am also wondering..how much sun does that area get throughout the year? I would love to have a kitchen herb garden, and wondering if I can get away with less light!

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Marie - glad you enjoyed the video. So many herbs, so little time! Sage is a great herb too. I actually do have sage growing on one side of this garden bed, but chose to talk about just 6 herbs so the video wasn't too long, lol! This area is partially shaded in the summer, and mostly shaded in winter. You will get larger sized plants in full sun but they can be grown in partial sun as well. Grow Parsely and Cilantro part sun in warmer temps, Good luck with your Herb Garden!

[@colecionandopitaya4222]

Ótimo trabalho 👍

[@pamelaloya5117]

Hey, can you help out!!! Am I supposed to transfer them into a larger container before putting them outside in the garden or??? If so, how long are they supposed to wait in the larger container before planting them out in the garden?

[@evansullivanrichgels5531]

@CaliKim29 Garden & Home DIY Just a tip for the future if you didn't know you can actually compost meat and dairy. You should probably hot compost it though.

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Evan - thanks for the info. It's great to hear what works for different gardeners in different growing situations. Composting meat and dairy is an option, but I prefer not to, as it seems to bring in the pests and sometimes takes longer to break down. Enjoy your composting and thanks for stopping by!

[@evansullivanrichgels5531]

@@CaliKim29 Thank you for all your videos! I actually don't compost it in my compost bin being that I live in Wisconsin and it takes a long time for it to break down. I chuck it in the little forest area in my backyard and cover it up with soil. This way it can go back into the environment without it winding up in my bin when I take out the finished stuff to feed my garden in the spring. Enjoy your composting as well and happy fall!

Thank you! 🌱

I have rooted 2 kinds of oregano, basil and sweet mint and growing it inside beautifully. I have had a first time garden grow beyond my expectations with the unpredictable upstate NY weather.......but I cannot grow chives or spinach outside or indoors.. what the heck😂

[@BountifullyJo]

I just planted my herb garden on Saturday 🙌🏾!! I want to purchase the good dirt fertilizer but the shipping is so high. Do any of you know another liquid organic fertilizer that is high in nitrogen like Good Dirt’s?

[@KaramveerSingh5]

Good

[@BrittanyHerz]

Yay herbs! Thanks for the video. I got excited and started some and hardened them off just before that last big heat wave in CA and they made it through! Already harvesting my parsley and chives grown from your seeds. 😊 I want to plant dill from your seed collection too - do you think it gets too tall to put in a Smart Pots rail saddle planter? I worry they’ll flop over.

[@CaliKim29]

That's awesome, Brittany! The dill in the Herb Seed Collection is Mammoth Dill, it does get quite tall and might flop over in a Wall Saddle Planter. It would do better in a 5 gallon, or even a 1 gallon would be sufficient. Enjoy your herbs!

Hello. Great video. I got my seeds that I ordered from Calikim yesterday. Definitely will plant herbs. Planted indoors lavender for the winter. I know not an herb but any tips for growing. I want to tranplant it outside next year. Getting colder in western NY. Still have lettuce and carrots growing. Next will grow microgreens inside and cilantro. Thanks.

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Patricia, so glad you got your package - thanks for ordering! Lavender actually is a perennial herb, very hardy. It loves warm weather, but also does well in cool winters here, likes full sun, is very drought tolerant. You should be able to transplant it outdoors next spring, no problem! Enjoy growing your micros and cilantro indoors!

[@yolandeadedokun9725]

I actually had a rather easy time germinating thyme from seed. I kept it covered with garden fabric that keeps the weeds out and it germinated I want to say less then a week like probably no more than 3-4 days. But I had it in a bad location so it didn’t make it and have to replant.

[@CaliKim29]

Glad you had success with thyme, April! Hopefully you can find a spot it likes next time. Enjoy your herbs!

I wish location and amount of sunlight had been discussed. I have no idea where to put the herb garden to even get started. 🤷🏻‍♀️
