  • Watering

    Oregano thrives in well-drained soil and prefers slightly drier conditions. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. When you water, provide a thorough soaking, allowing excess water to drain away. Avoid overwatering, as oregano is susceptible to root rot in waterlogged soil. Ensure the soil is moderately moist, promoting healthy growth and essential oil production for robust flavor.

  • Harvesting

    To harvest oregano, wait until the plant is at least 4 to 6 inches tall for the best flavor. Use scissors or pruning shears to cut the stems, leaving a few inches above the soil to encourage regrowth. Harvest the leaves in the morning when the oils are most concentrated for optimal flavor.

  • Culinary/ Uses

    Oregano is great when used in pasta sauces, pizzas, and Mediterranean cuisines.
