Blooming time of #fenugreek with tiny #yellowflowers in my #kitchengarden

I use this spice dried, but never have seen the plant before. It is so delicate.

Wow really nice... Even i tried growing but after germination as the leaves showed up they weakened n fell down. What can be the reason?

Where did you buy seeds from

@Ritu I never faced such problem in germination, not sure about the reason, it maybe poor quality seeds, low moisture in soil, lack of sunlight. Don't use any fertilizer at time of germination.

@Ritu I purchase seeds from seed shop in Mandi Samiti. From where you belong?

I stay in Mumbai... n used the seeds from grocery market itself

Fenugreek has been grown in region of India. Its leaves and seeds both have used as a spice for dishes and an effective nutritional supplement. Numerous health benefits have provided by this herb. #fenugreek #methi #herb #india #winter #health #spice #leaf #nutrients
