How to Grow
Once you’ve chosen your location, prepare the soil by adding compost or other organic matter. This will help to improve the soil’s fertility and drainage. Sow the tarragon seeds directly into the soil, spacing them about 12 inches apart. Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil, and water well. Tarragon seeds typically take about two to three weeks to germinate. Keep the soil moist during this time, but be careful not to overwater. Once the seedlings have emerged, thin them out so that they’re spaced about 18 inches apart. This will give them plenty of room to grow. As the tarragon plants grow, be sure to keep the soil moist and fertilize them regularly with a balanced fertilizer. You can start harvesting the tarragon leaves once the plants are about six inches tall. Simply snip off the leaves as needed, being careful not to remove more than a third of the plant at once.
