I'm really worried about my plants. I have lavender sage thyme basil and rosemary. I also had cilantro but it was difficult to take care of in my climate. Um my rosemary and Lavender are in sickly states and I'm worried about them I was wondering if anyone could send maybe prayers my plants way :/?

Prayers sent, but some practical advice might be useful, too! Lavender and rosemary prefer drier soil to moist - how often do you water them?

I water the lavender once a day and with the rosemary I go once every two days and the soil that my mom got me was wet feeling but can try out (miracle grow) All my other plants are doing fine and thankyou

Hmm. Perhaps alter the soil to promote better drainage, or just water less, then?

Maybe they need larger pots also?

And thankyou I'll try that

Just wanted to give everyone an update, I think my lavender had babies accidentally uprooted one because they are really small but the other one is in place. Thankyou all for your wonderful advice and prayers/energy

I really appreciate it. My rosemary seems to look in the same condition though. I'll make sure to update you all if anything changes/improves

Thanks again
