WHY YOU SHOULD GROW CREEPING THYME FROM CUTTINGS:
=================================================
Creeping thyme is an excellent ground cover option. It can fill in a large area of ground, creating a dense green carpet that never needs mowed. It works well at suppressing weeds. And it also tolerates quite a bit of foot traffic.
The only problem is, if you want to properly fill in an area, it may take quite a few plants. Nurseries may charge $6 for just a single plant. Once you start buying dozens of plants, the expense adds up quickly. That's why it's so much better to learn to clone your thyme by taking cuttings!
=====================================
THYME PROPAGATION - TIPS FOR SUCCESS:
=====================================
You might be surprised to learn that you can take thyme cuttings in the Fall at the end of the growing season. This is extremely useful to know because you can grow them all Winter so that come Spring, you have lots of large plants!
For fast growth, I've found that a fertile potting mix works best. I'm also not afraid to keep my time constantly moist (using the system shown in my previous video). This in turn allows me to crank up the lights in my grow room for amazing results.
