I'm very new at herb farming and I'm struggleing with the business plan. Please let me know if you can help! Even if you only know a few of these herbs. I only need an average or an estimate... or if you know of a site that might help me out....

I've searched every where online for this information and have found nothing! Thank you soooo much!

If you are doing this as a business I would stagger your plantings...so if a plant gets old or diseased or well, dies you have a back up. Im sure your mint will produce the most, because it goes nuts! Make sure you contain it or you will be fighting it. Rosemary is a slow grower, Id plant extra of it. Chives gorw very fast and 10 plants will probably produce 3-5 pounds every 2 weeks. Cilantro is alot like parsley you can cut it once a week and it will grow back pretty fast.Id say a safe bet with this list of herbs would be 3-5 pounds of herb every 2-3 weeks for 10 -12 plants of each.
Reply:I know my book square foot gardening it has that info in it. I'll go look for it and then add an edited note when I do. Until then here is the website. I love my SFG. High yield, low matenience!!!!

AARGH! I'M SORRY. I COULD NOT FIND MY BOOK. HOPE THE SITE HELPS. GOOD LUCK.
Reply:Not much .Your talking 10 plants and the ones you are asking about you only use the leaves except garlic. Rosemary would be your next heaviest weight.Herbs grow different in all areas but grow easy most of the time. If your looking to make cash growing herbs you would be better off just selling plants or get one of those seal a meal bag products and sell them at a flea market or to friends but hard to say how many pounds per harvest until you do it once.
Reply:sorry i don't understand your question but i'm familiar with chives, Garlic, peppermint and Oregano



I know chocolate beans, Oranges and mints but not sure if there is such a herb called chocolate mint or orange mint unless it's the combination.
