  • Soil requirements: Lavender heirloom herb seeds prefer well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with a pH level between 6.5 and 7.5. Good drainage is crucial to prevent root rot.
  • Sunlight needs: These seeds require full sun, which means at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
  • Watering requirements: Water the seeds sparingly. Once established, lavender plants are drought-tolerant and only need watering when the soil is completely dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
  • Planting season: The best time to plant lavender heirloom herb seeds is in the spring after the last frost, or in the fall in warmer climates.
  • Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds at a depth of 1/8 inch and space them about 12 to 18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
  • Germination time: Lavender seeds typically take 14 to 28 days to germinate. Providing a warm environment (70°F to 75°F) can help speed up the germination process.
  • Maturity time: Lavender plants usually reach maturity in about 90 to 200 days, depending on the variety and growing conditions.
  • Harvesting time: The best time to harvest lavender is in the early morning after the dew has dried but before the heat of the day. This helps preserve the essential oils in the flowers.
  • Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the flower stems just above the leaves. Hang the harvested stems in small bunches in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated area to dry. Store dried lavender in airtight containers away from direct sunlight to maintain its fragrance and potency.
