6 Herbs You Can Easily Grow in Water All Year Round

Growing plants in water is a simple and soil-free method, making it perfect for indoor herb gardening. If you’re looking to add fresh flavors to your cooking and bring greenery to your living space, here’s a step-by-step guide on how to start.

Getting Started

Cutting Twigs: Select twigs from a healthy, mature plant. Choose young twigs that are around 15 cm in length. Remove the leaves near the base to encourage root growth and prevent mold in the water.

Preparing the Container: Use a container like a pot, a glass bottle, or even a plastic one. Cover the part where the roots will grow with a strip of paper or fabric to shade the roots and prevent algae formation. The container should have a narrow neck to support the twig but not restrict root development.

Water Maintenance: Initially, change the water once a week. After 2 to 6 weeks, when white roots have formed, frequent water changes are no longer necessary.
