Lemon balm is said to support the immune system by offering potent antiviral and antibacterial properties, which can help ward off infections and strengthen the body’s natural defenses.

Choose a warm spot with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight for growing your plant. You may wish to supplement with a flourescent or LED grow light during the winter months. This kit is designed for growing indoors, but you can also transplant outdoors in mid to late spring if you wish. Lemon balm is hardy in USDA zones 4 through 9. Typical growing time is 14 to 28 days until sprouting and 2 to 3 months until harvest.

To dry the herbs after harvesting: gently rinse to remove any dirt, tie together in small bunches using kitchen twine, and hang upside down for about 1-2 weeks until completely dry. Store dried herbs in an airtight container for up to one year. To make a lemon balm tea from the dried leaves, steep in hot water for 5 to 10 minutes.

Shipping via U.S. Mail is included in the price.
