If you have a glass jar and access to fresh water, you can grow a supply of herbs in water right on your windowsill! While any medium -sized container will do, Mason Jars are particularly cute! Growing procedure for all the herbs is the same. Simply take some healthy, fresh cuttings - Leaving just two sets of leaves at the top of each cutting, and remove the remaining leaves. Then, submerge the cuttings in a few inches of clean-water.
Here is a list of such herbs.

This video had some sage advice. Need some thyme to digest it all.

Mint is so good to grow and use. I have a pot of it growing right outside my front door. Every day on my way to work I pick a leaf and place it in the car vent. What a natural pick me up. It smells so good and gives me a fresh start to my day.

I just started growing herbs as indoor plants that I take outside when the sun is out. My first 3 herbs are rosemary, basil and mint (although I'm not sure what the variety of mint is). I have a 4th herb, en route from Australia, called Brahmi (which I believe is also known as moneywart). So far, easy to care for: monitor for proper water amounts and proper amounts of sunlight. I enjoyed this video as it is short, to the point and informative.

[merncat]

yep, been growing fresh basil in a jar of water since I was a little girl.. keep it in a windowsill to get plenty of sunshine.. it makes your kitchen smell amazing too ♡

A friend gave us some spearmint for tea. It was so good that I was going to ask for some plants, but I did not want to wait, and the spearmint looked so vibrant that I felt confident I could use one of the stems with leaves to start a plant. I cut off all but the top four leaves, place the stem in water for 3 days, then planted it in soil and kept it watered.

There was never a moment when it looked like it might wilt, it has been steadily growing, and has started to produce new leaves. Now I am waiting for it to begin to propagate new plants.

I've grown my own lettuce, strawberry, green onion and chives indoor at home 🤗🥰

[mysticstardust]

Now I'm sitting on my chair hoping one of the herbs will magically pop out in front of me so I can get started.

There is a difference between growing in plain water and hydroponics as shown in the example. You might get a few roots but the plants need a brief reprieve from constant water, and also need nutrients. Roots don’t like sunlight either.

[Smashachu]

This is called the "kratky method" of hydroponics. You will need hydroponic nutrients in order for your plant to actually grow, the water itself does not contain the nutrients required to sustain life let alone grow any bigger. Also if you wanna increase the survival rate of your cuttings make sure to pick up some rooting gel this will assist the plant in creating roots in order to actually grow instead of just sitting there slowly getting more brown till it dies.

[miloradvlaovic]

I think that:

a) You'll really eventually need to add some micronutrients to the water. Plants do need more than water and sunlight to grow, blossom, and eventually bare fruit. Even the aquatic plants do.
b) some of the herbs mentioned are xerophytes. They may grow root from a stalk in water, but they won't thrive from water alone. Examples from the vid: Sage and Rosemary. You see those naturally growing on rocky, dry ground or limestone, exposed to the direct sunlight most of the day.

[janiceb]

Lemongrass isn't as popular as some of the herbs mentioned here, but roots easily and quickly once put in water.

[marchetaalbert]

I grow in a aquaponic unit in the home. A water feature, soothing to sleep by and grows herbs and greens very well.

[BeckeyGirard]

I would have loved more details. Especially on the hydroponic nutrients. Good information simply on what herbs WILL grow in water.

[truthseeker]

You can sprinkle some kelp powder in the water for nutrients. It's cheap!

[Remedi]

I love seeing my Herbs grow and regrow and regrow over and over again in my little jars 💚😊🌿

[MartaPiquerasBrunet]

I just started to grow celery and spring onions in water jars last week. it's really fun :) I already mentioned it to a few friends too! I think I'll try mint and stevia now, thanks for the tip! :)))

[michaelgrimes]

I bought a Basil plant 3 summer's back and have been propagating cuttings off of it since. I've got 2 new plants growing now! The plant that just keeps giving!
I'm trying mint now and some rosemary to add to my window garden!

[steveschnatz]
