Suffolk Herbs Thyme
Thyme is a very decorative low growing herb with a lovely flavour. It can be used in a whole host of dishes and goes particularly well with chicken. It is also one of the main components of a Bouquet Garni.
It produces pretty pink flowers which are attractive to bees and grows to a height of 40cm.
When to Sow Thyme Seeds
February to May.
Where to Sow
Sow seeds underglass 0.5cm (¼") deep, in small trays of compost and lightly cover the seeds with a sprinkling of compost , and place at a temperature of 15-20°C . Alternatively sow direct outside in April and May into shallow seed drills.
What to do next
Prick out seedlings individually to 8cm (3") pots, once large enough to handle. Grow on in cooler conditions , then gradually harden off plants in a cold frame before planting out after risk of frost has passed. Transplant to final positions 30cm (12in) apart or into larger containers, or grow a few in pots on a light windowsill all year round. Direct sown seedlings can be thinned to 15cm (6in) apart then lifted and transplanted to final positions once large enough to handle.
Harvest
All year round.
