Apart from the sage all of them have been grown from plants I got at the nearby convenience store. Had the most success with basil and spring onions so far, but oregano sage and mint is looking promising. Thyme and coriander has not worked yet. Hoping to get to where I don't need to buy much of them anymore and always have these on hand.
Sweet! That is cool about the rosemary cutting. Here is a cool fact: Did you know that you can use willow stems as a natural rooting compound? Willow contains indole-3-butyric acid and salicylic acid, which help rooting. You essentially brew several 2-3 inch pieces of willow stems into a strong tea (simmered for an hour) and let cool. Then you take the plant cutting and let it sit in this willow brew for about 24 hours before planting it.
I did not know that. Thanks for the tip!
