The MayFord Thyme (Thymus vulgaris) is a fast-growing, drought-tolerant herb, widely appreciated for its culinary versatility and medicinal benefits. It is best sown in seed trays, ensuring light soil coverage and regular moisture for successful germination.
Seedlings should be transplanted at 30 cm intervals, with a final plant height of 30 cm, ensuring compact, lush growth. Regular watering is essential throughout the growth cycle, and pressing down the soil after sowing enhances root establishment.
Harvesting can begin when plants are young, providing fresh thyme leaves continuously for seasoning, teas, and medicinal uses. Thyme thrives in well-drained soil and makes a great addition to borders, herb gardens, and container plantings.
