Seasonal Herb Garden Guidance

Progression through the year with precise greenhouse methods

Spring: Seedlings & Early Greens

Establish resilient starts for basil, dill, chives, and mint. Prioritize warm microclimates, consistent moisture, and sterile media to minimize damping-off. Introduce airflow ramps to prevent fungal pressure as temps rise.

Summer: Flavor Power & Heat Management

Capitalize on high-intensity daylight with steady irrigation, shade management, and leaf-optimizing strategies for oregano, thyme, and lemon balm. Use companion planting layouts to deter pests and stabilize humidity.

Autumn: Fortify & Stockpile

Harvest and dry core herbs, prune for bushier forms, and prepare root cuttings where suitable. Maintain CO2 and temperature targets to maximize terpene retention just before dormancy.
