Fenugreek is an easy-to-grow herb that has been used as a spice, a food, and a medicine for thousands of years. Fresh leaves can be eaten like spinach, and an infusion was traditionally used to treat a wide range of minor ailments. If you try eating it as a vegetable, expect a mustardy flavour. As a tea, you will find it to be a relaxing drink. Finally, the ground seeds make a tasty spice that has long been used in middle-eastern cuisine.

Growing Information

How to Sow

Apart from its culinary uses, Fenugreek can be used to improve soil. For this, sow densely and work the seedlings in after a few weeks of growth. Sowing depth is 1cm. Keep moist until germination.

How to Harvest

To harvest leaves, snip them off at the stem or cut whole stems. For seeds, pull up whole plants when the pods turn yellow. Hang them upside down with a paper bag wrapped around the heads to collect seeds as they pop open or pop them by hand and leave to dry.
