I would like to start on the following probably in containers :
MINT - how to start & what type of container to use?
Curry leaves ( Murraya keonighi) - how to start and what size of container to use?
Tulsi (Holy basil) - how to start?
Chillie - different varieties - how to start?
Lemon Tree - THE BIG LEMONS - how to start?
Right now, the only thing which we have at home is the so called MONEY PLANT (Epipremnum aureum). This we have been growing for the past 27 years or so and it is now grown but in a rather small container.
What I would like to know is how do I start? I have absolutely no knowledge how to germinate or grow from seeds? BUT I AM VERY KEEN to learn. Only problem is that as we are living in an apartment we have a rather small space outside the apartment to grow a few small containers of plants.
Any help & advise will be very much appreciated.
Thanks.
