Herbs Gone Wrong!

Three weeks ago, I started some herbs in pots and set them in a sunny window. I was so excited when they started coming up. I watered them and checked them every day. On Monday of this week, I checked and they had all fallen over and are now dead. I really don't know what happened. Maybe my green thumb has finally dried up.

Hmmm. Did you water them too much or did they sit in water? Did you keep them moist enough. It's hard to now what's happened unless I could eyeball them and see. You also could have a parasite of some sort. They love young herbs of some sorts.

Have a great day
Some herbs like it dry also. Rosemary and lavender are two who prefer to be on the drier side. Basil likes it wet.

I think I will try again this week. Most likely I overwatered them. It's just that part of me that has to see something grow this time of year. I'm an old farm girl that just has to plant things. Herbs are not my strong suit though. I'll keep you posted on the new planting.
