Stop Buying Herbs...Do this Instead - Herb Garden

I have an amazing shopping hack. The next time that you are at the grocery store and need fresh herbs, purchase the organic herb plants and grow your own!

This isn’t a hack… this is gardening

[@daniellesjoy]

Yep, something anyone can start :)

[@ti4833]

Which can also still be a hack...

[@brooklynzoo7189]

@@daniellesjoywell it's a huge hack for me because I'm learning and I got some of these today and they were way cheaper than the ones they actuate in the garden section so if anyone ask say the hack is it's way cheaper than in the garden section ❤

Lol

[@whatsmaname9219]

I didn't know...

[@linnealanderdahl4310]

Don't forget to break up the root bound!! I just got a mint plant today and I'm going to pick up a bigger pot for it, can't just put mint in your garden your it'll SPREAD!!

[@daniellesjoy]

Great tip

[@rachelbee7921]

I did this today. I needed fresh basil, and the teeny amount you get from the plastic clamshell packs in the fridge case at Kroger, is outrageously priced. I got one of these Organic basil plants for $1.99, and after I use what I need for dinner tonight, I'll transfer this to my garden. 👍🏽❤️

[@daniellesjoy]

Love this!

[@pjihae]

...how is this a hack? This is just featuring something that is available for sale..

Inspiration to change the way you think when your at the grocery store!

[@raccoonrave6407]

@@daniellesjoy the grocery store is guiding you to that decision by placing those there. It doesn't take much extra thought

[@Unknown19837]

[@raccoonrave6407]

@@Unknown19837 yeah and? the grocery guides you to that decision. it has nothing to do with changing the way you think. are y'all seriously that detached from where your food comes from that growing a plant is a revolutionary concept or a new way of thinking?

[@memebzk5001]

@@raccoonrave6407 common sense isn't so common for LOTS of folk, there are tons of folks that wouldn't even think about doing this.. Some ppl don't even know they can grow these on their kitchin counter.. But now they do.

[@jordanhuguenard8315]

Commercial herbs are fed with synthetic fertilizer, if you grow organically it is extremely difficult to transition them when they are fed synthetic fertilizers for the duration of their growth until they are sold

[@noodle646]

There is no difference between synthetic and organic fertilizer, except that synthetics kill important microbial life whereas organic doesnt. you can use both at the same time if you wanted, plants cant tell the difference so there is no "hard to get used to the transfer" when switching different fertilizers. Transplanting from a pot into the ground/bigger pot can gender their growth for a bit from the shock.

[@jordanhuguenard8315]

@@noodle646 If the organic fertilizer has already been processed by microbes I would agree with you, it's just liquid processed nutrients, but the symbiotic relationship between the microbes and the roots of the plant hasn't been established because they are in a microbe free environment for its entire life until purchased by someone and planted, it's that transitional phase of symbiosis between the microbes and the plant is what's difficult assuming the plant is mature

[@zedmeinhardt3404]

Dont be upset if they die, they come extremely root bound and are watered constantly or never depending on store. Dont get me wrong, this can work! The ones in garden center are usually healthier and not crowded in the pots

[@daniellesjoy]

Good tips!

[@daviddreher8588]

They are also not used to the harsh light of the sun, nor the wind, so spending time hardening them off before planting out would help ensure better success as well

[@baileydubs]

I’ve seen videos where you get these and separate them so they have more space and will actually live long term

[@gofigure4920]

I found them in Walmart a month ago. It worked fine! Just maked sure you water them every 2 days. I divided it . 🎉

[@di4085]

I put four of them in one pot and now I have one large pot of Basil growing outside my kitchen door.

[@daniellesjoy]

Love it!

[@tomevans4402]

Smart and fun too👍

[@daniellesjoy]

Yes!

[@9mccloud]

Yes!! Thanks for reminding me of this🙏🏾💕🙏🏾🌱🙌🏽

[@daniellesjoy]

You are so welcome

[@ThoseOneGuysInc]

Even if you don’t keep the plant those planted herbs are cheaper than the bagged herbs for a similar amount,

[@daniellesjoy]

1000% agree!

[@farmervee_yt]

Absolutely, thank you.

[@daniellesjoy]

You're very welcome

[@christinastevenson4901]

I bought these and they just die 😭😭

[@daniellesjoy]

Oh no! Don’t forget to water and have plenty of sunlight!

[@meredithf4604]

I had the same thing happen, when I looked them up I had saw they were grown hydroponically. I was thinking that was why they died on me.

[@user-om3df3jw9l]

Oh wow i wish i could grow them but i dont have enough space in here.

[@daniellesjoy]

Oh no well maybe later!

Omg the fact that ppl didn’t know you can buy herb plants is shocking

[@daniellesjoy]

Haha I know right!

[@johnshillinglaw8433]

Some of those herbs, you can simply buy them and root in water...

[@daniellesjoy]

Good idea John!

[@FC2ESWS]

Wow what a hack, I bought a plant that was made for planting and planted it! I'm such a genius!

[@daniellesjoy]

Enjoy!

[@toniasfusion2797]

Yes we bought those herbs as well

[@daniellesjoy]

Love it!

[@sarahwells6898]

Or you can just grow your own. I suppose that's not convenient enough for many people though. I prefer to watch things grow from seed. All that effort to water and care for the plant to see them bloom is better than anyplace I could buy.

[@daniellesjoy]

Agreed from seeds is always the best too!

[@equation8591]

Very fun to do this just to watch the plant die for an unknown reason after months before it flowers.

[@Yaboipalpy]

Nobody can tell me what soil to use, please can you advise what works well for herbs? Thank you

[@heyna1185]

I love propagating plants for the same reason. Just buy one plant and make as many more out of that as you want! It‘s so simple with basil too. I haven‘t done it yet but it‘s next on my (very long) plant care list lol

Unfortunately they usually die after a few days u take them home bc they are not resistant to temperature changes since they were grown in artificial conditions..

[@daniellesjoy]

Ours have lived for some time!

[@marcosgonzales2007]

I think it’s because there are so many stuffed into the pot. If you separate them and plant them individually you’ll have better luck

This isn't a hack.. they'll surely die sooner. You can't grow them in the garden for certain climates in the outdoors. Also taking the leaves like that is total savagery.😢 With basil, you have to cut three nodes up from base to encourage life.
