Roscoe's kitchen—It's all in the (legal) herbs
It's all in the herbs. To be more specific it's all in the freshherbs and yes, you can actually grow your own herbs— rosemary,thyme, basic, oregano just to name a few.
While it's easy to purchase dried and fresh herbs from the localsupermarket, there are many advantages to growing your own cookingherbs. Fresh herbs are surprisingly versatile. They can be used toseason food, create natural dyes, or provide fragrant centerpiecesfor your home.
Cooking herbs can be grown in a separate herb garden or mixed inwith your existing flowers and vegetables. If you choose to combineyour herb garden with other plants, remember that cooking herbs canbe annual, biennial, or perennial.
If you don't have access to an outdoor garden area, you can growcooking herbs in planters or pots placed near a well-lit windowsupplemented by fluorescent light if necessary. In fact, purchasinga herb garden kit from one of the local plant stores will provideyou with everything you need to create an indoor herb garden.
Although many people choose to customize their gardens to fit theirown cooking preferences, dill, oregano, basil, sage, thyme,rosemary, sweet marjoram, tarragon, and parsley are often excellentchoices for the beginning herb gardener. These herbs are hearty,resistant to disease, and can be used in a variety of recipes.
If you plan to grow cooking herbs indoors, you may also want toconsider including garlic, chives, mint, or lavender as part ofyour herb garden. Since different types of cooking herbs grow bestin certain climates, it's a good idea to ask someone at your localgarden center for advice on planning your first herb garden.
No matter what type of cooking herbs you decide to grow, you'llincrease your odds of having a successful garden if you remember afew simple tips. If you plan to grow your herbs in containers,choose clay pots instead of plastic since clay is more porous andwill make it easier to keep the soil moist. Although it is possibleto grow cooking herbs in partial sunlight, most gardenersrecommended that your herbs receive four to six hours of fullsunlight daily. Fertilizer is generally not needed, since mostcooking herbs grow best under low or medium soil fertilityconditions.
