Although this herb prefers full sun and lush, well-drained soil, it will grow in nearly any soil type. Fenugreek prefers soils that are neutral to slightly alkaline in pH, ranging from 6.5-8.2. Plant the seeds in a location with at least 4-5 hours of direct sunlight with afternoon shade. If you are growing it in a climate where the sun is not intense and the weather is cold, choose a sunny place. Since it is a tropical plant, it should be planted several weeks after the last spring frost. Sow the seeds thickly 1/4" deep in a well-plotted grow bag, thinning to 4" apart when seedlings emerge. Germination should occur within a week; soak the seeds overnight before planting to increase germination. Fenugreek also grows well in containers and can be sprouted to produce microgreens. Growing Kasuri Methi (Fenugreek) Leaf Maintain the constant moisture level in the soil. Water the soil regularly to keep it slightly moist and keep weeds at bay. Mulch may assist with this, as well as shield the leaves from excessive soil contact. Fenugreek cannot withstand freezing, so it should be protected if cold weather threatens. Take care not to overwater the fenugreek plant and to prevent waterlogged soil. It will impede the growth of your plant and eventually kill it. If growing fenugreek indoors or in a shady place, keep an eye on watering. Harvesting Kasuri Methi (Fenugreek) Leaf Fenugreek leaves can be harvested at any point, from microgreen to mature.
