CUMIN

CUMINUM CYMINUM

 

 

Cumin is a must in every herb garden, a lovely herbacious annual, with small slender branches. 

 

Sow the seeds in late spring in a sunny, warm site, away from other plants that may crowd them.  Keep them well weeded.  Seeds may also be planted in small containers, and transplanted (See our Plastic Seedling Trays).  Keep the seedlings moist.  Cumin needs a warm climate for its seeds to set, and mature.  Prepare the soil carefully, so that it is medium rich, well drained and friable.  Add generous amounts of compost.  If the soil is very acid, give it a light sprinkling of dolomitic lime.  Keep the plants moist as they cannot store water owing to their fragile nature. 

 

 

HARVESTING & DRYING:  When the fruit starts to turn yellow, cut the plants at ground level, place on drying trays, leave in a warm, airy room or shed to dry.  Once dry enough, rub the seeeds from the seedheads and store in airtight glass jars. 

 

Cumin is said to stimulate the appetite, relieve flatulence, intestinal colic and aids digestion.
