Prepare the Soil Soil type: Well-draining soil, preferably sandy loam. pH level: Neutral to slightly acidic (around pH 6–7). Light conditions: Grows well in partial sun to full shade. 2. Seed Preparation Horseherb seeds are small and do not require special treatment, but soaking them in water for 2–3 hours can help speed up germination. 3. Sowing the Seeds Scatter the seeds over the soil surface. Press them lightly into the soil (do not bury deeply). Optionally, cover with a thin layer of fine soil or compost.

Once established, horseherb is drought-tolerant. Fertilizing: Not necessary, but a light organic fertilizer or compost can help early growth. 5.
