Each season in India is known for its seasonal produce. Here are some of the best herbs that you can grow in the kitchen garden in monsoon.
Thyme grows well in a warm and sunny area with the soil that has been drained quite well. The most common way of using thyme is to sun dry and convert it into a powder form.
The popularity of parsley has also increased quite a bit in India in the past few years. It is used as a garnishing ingredient on the top of pizzas, salads, and pasta. The best way to germinate parsley is to soak the seeds overnight first and then plant them the next day.
Rosemary is a type of shrub that has some woody stems. Rosemary grows the best when the temperature is hot and extremely humid.
Basil is another great choice for a kitchen garden herb plant. The plant requires a lot of water, sunlight, and humidity.
Lemon balm is a plant that belongs to the mint family. It needs a lot of sunlight to grow well.
