Grow Endless Herbs! 🌿 

I took cuttings from our tomatoes last fall and kept them alive through the winter and set them out as large plants instead of starting from seeds. I've got tomatoes!

First-time viewer. I just had a quick conversation with my wife and I told her what a friendly and engaging chap you are, very jovial, I say. I am pretty entertained and learning. Well done sir.

I buy a growing basil from the supermarket in spring each year. Then divide, plant and harvest.

I love this man! He is a plant angel and his love of plants benefits all the veggie inhabitants of his garden🤗

Love your little helper pottering around the garden

I love your simple, practical advice ! You make gardening fun and so doable. Thank you for all your doing !

I’ve done this with organic lettuce that comes with the roots still attached. Works great!

I am always happy when I see your face pop up, having a video to teach me about the gardening subject I'm looking for. :)

My Mint cuttings rooted well in my kitchen window and came on really well once I planted them. Now I have a good supply to make my own mint sauce, lovely!

I have been pouring over your videos again and again since about January of this year. You have taught me so much, thank you for all the information. I've been a gardener for a couple decades now. Nice to know i still have so much more to learn. Our garden this year has exploded, potatoes tomatoes, berries, beans and lettuces. Keep sharing that wonderful knowledge, also looking to join the Garden Planner group later this summer. 🍀

Love this. I too have a beloved rosemary bush that I would love to propagate from but wasn't sure how to go about it. Thanks!

I have never heard of taking cuttings of Herbs and rooting them! What a marvellous idea! Bravo Ben. I must try this. Thank You so much. I learn something new from your Podcasts each and every time. Keep up the excellent work. God Bless you!

I've been growing tyme rosemary and mint like this for a few years now its great and mint is very easy out of the three I grow

I've just bought some basil from the supermarket... am going to try growing cuttings from it! Thanks for the great advice...

Yes, you have encouraged me to grow new plants from cuttings! Thank for the knowledge!🙂

I wrote lots of notes and saved this video. Thank you, you are so incredibly helpful.

I never knew herbs rooted so easy I will definitely be trying this now 😊

Ah, so that is why my cuttings never work... I've been doing everything wrong! Great video, thank you!

Thanks for sharing. I love all different herbs and I now I will be growing my own herbs 🌿

❤ Thank you so much Ben!! ☺️❤

Always packed with great info--thank you!

Fab advice. Here in Spain I'll definitely have to shade the cuttings.

Thanks, Ben, great advice!

Thanks so much, that's really helpful!

Wonderful advice thank you I'm a beginner at gardening and really enjoy watching things bloom and blossom have had s few failures both plants but am encouraged by this method absolutely love herbs thanks God bless you !

Green onions, buy once and plant the roots... Great video! Also basil let it flower and collect the dried seed heads.

Thank you! So lovely and helpful. And it's nice to see Rosie supervising the whole operation ;)

I was given some herbs the other day, and this video was really helpful! Thank you!

Going to try this, been failing trying to grow them from seeds :( Thank you!

Brilliant, so well explained. Thank you.

Great advice, thank you from Ireland.

Brilliant - something I do quite often Ben!

Been wanting to try this for a while thank you for your wonderful video!

I’ve just successfully done this with basil but will definitely be trying with other herbs too. Thankyou!

Great tutorial. I love mint and rosemary.

This is great. So simple! I've done this with an old rosemary. I plan to give this a try with some of my varieties of basil this year. Thanks!

Thanks for an inspiring video!

Great advice for multiplying my herbs! 🌿 🌱

I love your videos. ❤️ They are so wholesome and happy!

I love your videos. Always well explained and easy to follow. Thanks so much!!

Thank you for this awesome video❤ I always have a problem planting herbs from seeds so now I'm going to grow my herbs as shown on your video😊 Merry Christmas🎄🎅

Thanks, very informative video indeed

Great video, Ben! I've got perennial herbs all over my yard. Many of them readily start their own new plants via runners or seeds. I honestly can't count the number of herb starts I've given away to family & friends. I don't generally buy fresh herbs from the store unless I need something that doesn't grow here. But I do like to regrow store-bought things such as potatoes, garlic, ginger, bunching onions & celery.

Thanks. I did propagate basil, lemon thyme and rosemary last year just the way you did. I also propagated a very productive "super sweet 100" tomato and overwintered it and have it now being very productive again this summer. Way to go.

I took cuttings from sage, rosemary and mint. Rosemary and mint root very easy within a week.

Wonderful teachings Tks

This is really brilliant, Ben! I learned a lot and I will definitely try propagating my herbs. I am also forwarding your video on to my granddaughter who is growing her own first herb garden this summer!

I have a crate of a couple of things that I’m trying to propagate. Didn’t think to pink to get side growth. Thank you for sharing.

Lovely informative video again Ben, thank you. I have never heard of using honey for cuttings, I’ll give it a go. I always use Aloe Vera. Just cut off a leaf, roll it between your finger and thumb to break up the gel and insert your cutting in to get a good coating of slime on it 😕 and plant it. It works every time.

I’m looking to make herb cuttings this summer..very helpful video..thanks Ben👍🏿

Lovely episode. I'll be sure to start some basil right away

Fave herbs....not found one yet that we don't like!! We're having salmon with garlic chives and oregano tonight

I'm glad I found your channel! I want to start a herb garden but have no idea how! This has been invaluable!

Thank you so much for all the fantastic tips.

Small tip. I use a spray bottle for holding the alcohol during sanitation/sterilization. It will give even coverage on your sheers and the solution will go much farther.

OMG! THAT IS YOUR ROSEMARY! Wow!! Never here in Zone 5a US. Nice!

Always love your videos Benedict. And the adorable doggy! Will give this a go.

Great timely reminder.

Love mint in a mojito or Thai food, tea. Pear mint from richters herbs in goodwood, Ontario There are some herbs that divide. Chives

I can never keep shop bought basil alive. I have a small plot so I will try to do it and hopefully the basil will survive. I love watching the videos so much handy info easy to understand and good fun as well. You are my go to guy👍

Good method to grow herb by cutting propagation , thanks for nice tips

I am goïng to try this! Thankyou so much. You are a great teacher. 👌🏻

Thank you for being so generous with your time. Your knowledge has enabled me to chnage my life

This is awesome I had no idea you could do this!

This is such a good video. I never got taught this at school. Seems like a vital life skill! Also only 1 dislike, impressive!

Awesome, Thank you

Thank you Ben for all the great advice! 🪴🌱🌿

You're wonderful! Your videos are lovely and very helpful.

Excellent tutorial! Thank you!

Excellent thank you

so many basic useful tips! wow! thanks so much :)

Thank you so much, your videos is are sooo inspiring! Alot of new information and ideas 🌿☘🍀

I used to sow basil seeds far too early, they would germinate in North Yorkshire during February but then just sit doing nothing. It may have been one of your videos that advised against sowing before April? Since switching to that I have found that the plants grow easily, ready to go out at the foot of tomato plants in late May. I have a supermarket basil plant that has enjoyed the colder months in the house, inspired by this video I am going to try some cuttings today to hopefully give us a head start. Mint roots here without any attention, Rosemary and sage are not far behind. Failed completely with cuttings from Blackcurrant Sage and French Tarragon. Chervil has been our favourite herb during recent months, a lovely flavour added to salads and it romped away once transplanted into the garden. Not sure why we don’t often see chervil in England, makes a good substitute for dill during the coldest part of the year. Thank you once again for sharing such interesting and easy to follow advice. 💐

Thank you I have learned so much .

Thank you. Very informative :D I am definitely going to try this.

Thanks for another informative video!

Wonderful tips and tricks! BTW I love your moveable yard art in the background! Woof!

Interesting video and adorable dog.

Hi do you have a list of which herbs you propergate in water and which ones you put into soil

I also do my Basil but never knew about Rosemary & Thyme! Usually get a Rosemary plant and plant Thyme from seed every year (Zone 5b as they won't overwinter here) but now I wont!!! Great tips of the "woody" herbs!

What a great video

Brilliant!

Good morning; firstly we love watching your channel thank you for all the efforts. We have been trying to grow Basil both supermarket and seed, but no sooner as we repot them into larger containers, fresh multi-purpose compost, water and give light the leaves yellow sometimes black spots and die? Do you have any tips please?

I just tried it, thanks.

Thanks, great video ☺️👍🏼

You make it look simple!!! 😃💖 I’m definitely going to try this with my lemon balm & rosemary. I have 2 basil seedlings growing....I’m going to plant more but in the meantime, I’ll buy some to try this technique! Have you done this with tomato cuttings? I’m attempting to try....I’m a haphazard backyard gardener in South Tx., USA.

WOOO I JUST SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR APP! awesome stuff, you are amazing

Thanks.

Brill..i'll buy basil from Aldi and take cuttings..thanks!

Great thanks 😊

My rosemary died this year, was well established and just went in a matter of a month of 2 sadly. May see if I can do what you have done with some store bought

8:40 is like the dog needed to poop and suddenly noticed the camera.

thank you for a great video!

Thank you, Ben, your knowledge is absolutely incredible. So nice that you share this. I have noted so many good tips for my upcoming veg garden 2024. Will definitely make a load of herbs. Have a different question: my beetroot didn't succeed last year and i love them. They stayed very small and actually useless. I fear that i didn't thin them enough so that they were crowded out. OR that they had too little sun, they are in semi shade but beetroot is supposed to accept that? Any comment to this?

Hello, I love your videos, very aspiring, I would like to know if I can use the same method of propagating herbs also with store bought parsley and cilantro. Thank you for all you do! Appreciate a reply. Thank you again

Great information and simple instructions, thank you. As a new gardener is there a specific time of year I do this or can I do it anytime?

Thank you : )

I’ve just split some supermarket basil and parsley onto bigger pots with potting mix. I always struggle to keep plants alive. Any tips? Also will my herbs be ok in a south facing kitchen window that rarely gets direct sunlight?

Hey there! from central California

Another nice simple video again, Ben - thanks. One quick question ... I noticed that you potted the mint on into its own pot, but the others look like they were grouped around the outsides of shared pots. Do you treat mint differently ? Thanks.
