Gardening
Methi, also known as fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum), is a versatile herb used widely in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean cuisine. Both the seeds and the leaves of methi are commonly used for cooking and medicinal purposes. Methi leaves are known for their slightly bitter taste and are highly nutritious.
Methi is packed with vitamins A, C, and K, as well as folate and minerals like iron, calcium, and potassium.
Methi seeds and leaves are rich in fiber, promoting digestive health.
Seed Preparation:
Methi seeds are small and do not need any special preparation, though soaking them for a few hours in water can speed up germination.
Soil Preparation:
Use well-draining, loamy soil with good organic matter content. Methi can tolerate poor soils, but richer soil will yield better growth.
Ensure the soil is slightly moist before planting.
Planting :
Depth : Sow methi seeds about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep.
Spacing : Scatter the seeds evenly across the soil surface if growing for leaves, or plant them 4-5 inches apart in rows if growing for seeds.
Temperature :
Methi grows best in temperatures between 50°F to 90°F (10°C to 32°C).
It can be planted in early spring or during cooler months in tropical areas.
Watering :
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water gently to avoid washing away the small seeds.
Light :
Methi grows well in full sun, but it can also tolerate partial shade.
Germination Time:
Methi seeds typically germinate within 3-7 days.
Harvesting :
For Leaves : You can start harvesting young methi leaves about 20-30 days after planting. The entire plant can be cut at the base or leaves can be selectively harvested.
For Seeds : Let the plant grow for 2-3 months until it flowers and forms seed pods. Harvest the pods when they turn yellow and dry.
No of seeds per pkt : 60
Germination Rate: 70%
