Watering ThymeTenere asciutto
Let’s avoid watering the The Thyme excessively, always leaving the soil dry for a few days between one watering and the other, therefore let’s irrigate the substratum deeply every 2-3 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water . We should remember that it’s possible to harvest aromatic plants, dehydrating or freezing them, so we’ll be able to use them during the cold months.

During this time of year we shouldn't worry about minimum temperatures, in fact the The Thyme can bear temperatures a few degrees below zero.These plants are to be considered as vegetables, therefore in case of parasites we should use agricultural parasiticides; before harvesting the leaves of the treated plants let’s wait for the product not to be active anymore.

Treatments Thyme
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Soil Thyme
They favour dissolved soils with an excellent drainage.
