Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are a delicious herb that belongs to the onion family. They are perfect for home gardeners. 

Choose a growing spot that gets morning sun and some afternoon shade.

Mix potting soil with compost or well-rotted manure to prepare the soil. Make sure the soil is loose and drains well.

You can grow chives using seeds or seedlings. Sow chive seeds ¼ inch deep and cover them lightly with soil.

Water lightly after sowing. Keep the soil moist during germination. Avoid overwatering as wet soil can lead to root rot.

After sowing, the seeds germinate in 10-14 days. If the plants are growing too close to each other, cut the weaker plants.

Plant the plant in a place where it can get 6 hours of sunlight daily.

During the growth of the plant, give liquid organic fertilizer every 3-4 weeks so that it can grow well.

When the height of the plant is about 6 inches, it can be harvested.
