I have the worse brown thumb everything green turns brown. I have now been trying to grow window sill parsley. I have been told to water from the bottom. I have seen this done on telly where they put some water in sink and put the whole pot in the water.
But how long do I leave it there. I really would like to give this a good go at trying to grow something.

My mom can touch a green leaf and you can literally watch it brown up and fall off. I think it's an electrical dysfunction, she can't wear a watch either.
O K just leave it in the bath until the air bubbles stop and that should be enough, and don't touch the plant or check the soil by touching it. If you want to check soil for moisture, use a cotton swab.

Get a water tight tray to set the pot in and keep it wet. The soil will draw the water up to the roots. Do not dip the plant in to deep water. This will suffocate the root system.
