Hello
Sorry I did not see this earlier.
Please take it indoors if the pot is small and the rains are heavy. Or atleast keep it under a roof like garage.
No question is silly or small etc. Please do not think so. I do not know all but everyone here replies and helps too.
Good luck. Very glad you got started too:)

Dear AC,
I have sowed some methi seeds...they were doing good & looking healthy...but now they appear to be always drooping even if i water properly.The leaves are looking reduced in size.What could be the reason?Could that be the scorching summer/pest attack/lack of nutrients?i dint add any manure till now.Since i had no luck with Tulasi seeds i got a Tulasi plant from farmer's market.Should i provide any special care for them?What manure should i add?(hope i have given you enough trouble with my questions)

love,
ammu

Dear Ammu
No trouble at all:)
Methi seeds - do you want to keep it in shade for a while and then slowly move it outdoor for a short time?
Water plants only when they need them.
Most plants just need some sunlight and water. Once in a while miracle grow can be added to.
Hope I have helped.. not sure.. do keep us posted:)
