Here are some of the most common issues that you may encounter when growing chamomile:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Yellowing Leaves:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Yellowing leaves can indicate overwatering or poor drainage. Ensure that your chamomile plants are planted in well-draining soil and avoid overwatering. Adjust your watering schedule accordingly.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Pests<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Chamomile can be susceptible to aphids, mites, and leafhoppers. Monitor your plants regularly and take action at the first sign of infestation. Use organic pest control methods or introduce beneficial insects to control the pest population.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Fungal Diseases: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chamomile may be prone to fungal disease like powdery mildew in open field. Provide good air circulation by spacing out the plants and avoiding overhead watering. If necessary, apply a fungicide recommended for chamomile to treat the disease.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Leggy Growth<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: If your chamomile plants appear tall and spindly, it may be due to insufficient sunlight. Chamomile requires full sun for optimum growth. Ensure your plants receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f2b35c8 header2-subhead e-flex e-con-boxed e-con\" data-id=\"f2b35c8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-56b963a things-h elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"56b963a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Does_It_Take_for_Grow_ing_Chamomile\"><\/span>How Long Does It Take for Grow ing Chamomile?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a5887e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a5887e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gardening-website.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/assets\/blogs\/growing+chaamomile+WEBP\/stock-photo-crop-of-child-picking-bunch-of-daisies-in-a-field-of-flowers-2038932956.webp\" title=\"\" alt=\"a young girl picking chamomile flowers\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e35e2f header2-text elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8e35e2f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The time it takes to grow chamomile depends on your chosen planting method.

Here are some specific tips to follow:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Harvesting<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Chamomile flowers are ready to harvest when they are fully open and the center of the flower is slightly concave. It&#8217;s best to harvest chamomile flowers in the morning after the dew has dried, but before the sun is too high in the sky. To harvest, gently pinch off the flower heads and place them in a basket or bucket<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Drying<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: To dry chamomile, spread the flower heads out in a single layer on a clean, dry surface. Make sure they are not touching each other. You can dry chamomile in a warm, dry, well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight, or in a dehydrator set to a low temperature. Stir or turn the flowers occasionally to ensure even drying. Drying can take anywhere from a few days to a week, depending on the method used.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Storing: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the chamomile is fully dry, store it in an airtight container, such as a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid, in a cool, dark place. Chamomile can retain its flavor and aroma for up to a year if stored properly.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57ac60bc subhead-txt e-flex e-con-boxed e-con\" data-id=\"57ac60bc\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77bd09ed things-h elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"77bd09ed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">And that's a wrap!<\/p>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-269bdf3d know elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"269bdf3d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you&#8217;ve seen, growing chamomile can be an enjoyable and fulfilling experience.
