My Methis are grown 6 inches tall.i used to pull them all along with the roots .I was not aware about regrowing. 😋. Thanks for your tips and ideas.🙏. Canada
Your vids are indeed inspirational - your explanation and step by step approach makes the process easy peasy to understand. I have yet to try growing methi but will be using your method when I do. Many thanks 🙏🏽
Thanks for this I will definitely be trying to do this your way. That is nice as I did not know about the plant regrowing if you leave a bit of it when you harvest
Your video was very informative. I need help. The methi I grow (whether in soil or in cocopeat hydroponically) just grows upto a finger long and then falls/droops to the soil and gets dry. Is it because of heat ? I live in Orlando, Florida where the heat goes to 90 F or 32 C). But the plant is outdoor and yet kept in a place where it just gets sun upto noon time, after that it is shady. Do I need to bring it indoor with under 78 F or 25 C as the highest due to Ac running? Pls reply. Thank you.
What potting mix do you use? Do you add extra manure to potting mix too? My potting mix is 5 months old and am not sure if it needs extra compost or fertilizer? Waiting for your response
I mix compost, coco peat and perlite for soil. If you have not used the potting mix, there is no need to add co post or fertilizer. If you have used that potting mix, you can add compost or general purpose fertilizer
Okay...for brown thumb people like me and this might be a silly question but...how many times do you water this in a day? Thank you...such a great video. I’m just amazed at how wonderful fenugreek is. When I was thinking about using this I was thinking I would just drink the water like a tea but NOW I’m on a whole new level with sprouting and micro greens. How cools is this!
Watering depends on your climate. You need to experiment to find out how much watering it needs. When you water it, totally drench it and then next time stick your finger into the soil. If it's dry water it otherwise wait.
Thank you for this video. I have been growing it as microgreens and I find it to be a bit bitter. I have left some to grow taller and the true leaves seem to be more tender and less bitter. Has this been your experience? I am thinking that the 4-6 inch cutting will be the most preferred for cooking but I honestly don't know. Any advice? Thank you.
I used seeds from grocery shop. I am using inorganic fertilizer. But it only grows for once. Or is it that I harvested when it was very small. Please do let me know
@@EasyPeasyGardening you're great. My fenugreek growing. The seeds turn to green n growing. Also followed your string pearl planting video. And just planted it. Thanks
Does fenugreek leaf taste different that the ground seeds? On your home page you are standing in front of some magnificen large leaved plants...What are they?
Do you have any recipes for fenugreek? I've started growing it because I want to learn Indian cuisine, and I cant find any fenugreek in my area sadly. Im loving the smell of it.
Great. To add to the reply from Ritu, Soaked methi seeds are considered good to control type-2 diabetes, arthritis and several other common ailments. If interested in Indian cuisine, methi has several interesting dishes. you can also try - Aloo, Gajar, methi, the same way. Also making dough with fresh methi for parathas, will be crispy and tasty.@@jolynmiller3194
Depends on where you live. As the weather starts to become colder you can plant it. For example, where I live, summer is over and it's becoming cooler so I have planted the seeds
I think I got desi methi seeds..they germinated very well but after 10 days or so the tiny leaves all turned yellow...I can't figure out wot went wrong..in fact I bought seeds from a nursery...pl.help
Wait till the seed pods are plump and then wait for them to dry. I have never collected seeds from them because they are easily available in the grocery stores
I want to cook an Indian dish using fenugreek - so I would need to grow it myself as there is none in the grocery stores here in No. California. Can I plant methi seeds that I buy from the spice store ? Can you recommend a real good Indian dish to cook using fenugreek Than you, I enjoyed your tutorial.
Hi Ruchi, Nice video! My seeds germinated and grew a couple inches like micro greens but were very thin and never grew lush like yours, what can I do to troubleshoot? Thanks
Yes beginning of summer. But even if I buy it in the store I find that the smell dissipates quickly. There is a smaller variety of methi in India which was more flavorful.
After soaking for 1 night nxt day it should be washed with fresh water nd it should be kept in complete sunlight or partial nd for how many hrs plz reply
Depends on where you live. They like cooler weather, starting at the end of summer is good or spring time is good too. If the winters are mild then you can grow them in winters too,
Your video is very interesting. I just want to know whether methi seeds grows in clay (as its very difficult to get soil in our side). Somehow managed to get some gooey clay. So I find it difficult in this soil. Alternatively can you please advice whether it can be fully grown in cocopeat. Please reply mam. Thanks.
Easy Peasy Gardening IT. SEEMS very easy and I have grown it in plastic containers.but after cutting the crop twice what nutrient must be added in the same used up soil. Do we buy granules rich in nitrates to mix in the same soil or liquid and sprinkle on the soil and mix it after drying.
Can we do it on the land itself ... instead of pot? Cos I have gardening area that I could use . So wanted to know if it’s possible to do it in that space.
It is also great as a green manure. Fenugreek is really good compost and food for grazing animals. It also increase milk production in lactating animals as well as humans.
Easy Peasy Gardening thanks! And also for the greens like spinach , fenugreek - should we keep it in shade ? And water as required and not in open where it rains heavily ?
Thank u for sharing this video... I tried many times to grow fenugreek seeds in the pot but after sometime all the fenugreek leaves r being eaten by small small insects. Pls tell me what to do for small insects.Is there any medicines for insects

Do we need to leave few leaves on the stem we are cutting for regrowth? Or did you mean by leave few plants in the pot for regrowth? I did cut all the leaves and left just the stem, but I think mine were dying so i had to restart from new seeds
Have you completely cut your plants or left some leaves. If later, the plant will regrow. If not, you should remove the roots before planting new seeds.
@@EasyPeasyGardening yes will try again.... had tried ur saving tip for dead money plant it actually worked and touchwood my plant is doing great. Thanks once again❤️❤️

When and how can you harvest the fenugreek seeds from the plants?
You can harvest the seeds in summer
When the seed stalks start to dry up, harvest them

Hi! What latitude and temperature does " cooler weather" mean? I'm in Tennessee

Hi, my methi never gets more than 2 leaves. Please tell what to do
Tell me what happens to it.
will it grow in winter? Do you move container indoor on cold days?
It grows well in light winters. If the temperature is touching 0 degrees celsius, it will not grow well. I plant them in fall and in early spring.
Do you water everyday? I live SFO Bay area and it's around 90 degrees here.
Yes, I water it everyday
But this is not a good season for fenugreek. Fall is better.

Yes, you can sow the methi seeds from the grocery store. Once you have the leaves, ping us, we have a recipe site too.
Methi chicken is really nice.
can you tell how much and how often to water this ???
It depends on the weather. You need to check the soil by poking the soil with your finger. If it feels moist, don't water. If it feels dry, water it.
I have regular pot mix .. do I require any plant food to add it in the soil or just pot mix it enough?
If the soil is fresh, it will have enough nutrients. If you are using used soil, add some general purpose fertilizer
In general, a fertilizer high in nitrogen is better for leaves and vegetables
Is this hybrid or non hybrid methi seeds
Hybrid
