Grow Unlimited Thyme From Cuttings

Published 2022-03-10
Thyme Cuttings Made Easy! As a member of the Mint family, Thyme is very easy to grow from the cuttings of adult plants, and possible even grocery store stems if they are fresh enough! It is not hard at all and doesn't require any tools or equipment.

In this video, I'll show you how to root Thyme cuttings in water and then transition them either to pots, or for planting straight into your spring garden. The process takes about 2 weeks to root them, and even though they are woody perennials, its easier than you think! :-)

2022 is most definitely the Year of the Garden! We deserve it after the last little while, and growing our own food and self sufficiency is just the reward we need to get back on track! For more information on all your gardening questions, check out my other videos!:

    My mom and i have tried growing thyme so many times and have gotten heartbroken. Thanks for posting this. We will definitely be trying again ❤💖
  • Fun fact: if you cut the stems shorter so that you’re just dealing with the softer woody branches, and then clear away with your thumbnail the first 2 inches at the bottom, you can just stick them into potting soil and keep them underneath a cloche. They’ll root even quicker. No water changes needed.
  • @A1lifestyle005
    It takes Thyme…… The best line of yet another video on growing our own food 🍱!!! Thank you!!
  • I just LOVE your channel. You are so clear in instructing your viewers. You are soothing in your presentation. I always feel like I'm gardening with a friend. Thank you❤
  • @johnmccoy2721
    Man thanks to you I have never ending green onions ( they are about 3 weeks old and growing great) Now I will have Thyme and Basil too! My only thought during this video was when you said "now you are past the point of failure" My brain says-Challenge accepted HAHA! Thanks my friend.
  • @adrianne7355
    I love rewatching after the premiere, I catch so many more of your tips. My herb luck is hit and miss from seed, so this looks excellent...thanks again!
  • @terrychrist1383
    I didn't know that I could root Thyme. I have to buy some more. I threw away the plant that I thought was dead. Thank you so very much 💗 I love All your videos 😊💖 God bless you and your family 🙏🤗❤️

    That was quite a fantastic visual about the nodes and internodes! My grandfather, a lifelong nurseryman taught me about nodes :-) he Taught at University of Connecticut, and had a radio show about gardening! I myself am a huge permaculture enthusiast, and did Masters in medical humanities thesis on indigenous use of plants in remote Aboriginal villages in the mountains of Taiwan

  • Hi Jeff I just watched your video on how to grow Thyme I had just bought a Thyme plant and I'm hoping to get it to grow and to take cuttings to grow more and of course I went on Google and look up your video, Thank you so much for helping beginners like me 🙏❤️
  • @bizarrolisa
    I took the last three cuttings from my sad dying thyme plant. Thanks for this great video! Praying it works🙏✨
  • Just started with an indoor herb garden. I am in your area I imagine based on the Rider shirt. Thanks for videos. Love them!
  • Your videos are so informative. You do a great job helping complete beginners like me by showing exactly how to prepare your containers, soil, and how to water. Thank you so much brother. Bless you!

    One year, when I had a plot at the community garden at the Catholic church, I planted parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, like the Simon and Garfunkel song. I just grew them as one season herbs. At the end of the season, I harvested them and hung them in bundles so they could dry. Or, I might have used my dehydrator to dry them. It's been a long time ago. I did not grow any herbs last year and the garden bed that I have is about half the size of the one that I had at the Catholic church. I still want to grow tomatoes and I'm going to try kale and want to try zucchini again. I always plant marigolds. If bunching onions count as herbs, I did grow those last year and will grow them again this year. I also want to try a different variety of cucumber. For me, every time I get to garden, it is like a brand new learning experience.

    Good info Jeff. Never thought of growing Thyme from cuttings. Cheers.
