Thyme Growing Season In India  
Thyme is best planted during the cooler seasons, which are from late September to early November and then again from late January to early February in most regions of India. These periods provide the milder temperatures that thyme prefers for optimal growth.
How To Grow Thyme In Pots  
Thyme seeds can be sown directly into any pot or transplanted, but transplanting is recommended by most gardeners. To plant thyme, you need a pot or grow bag of at least 30-60 cm wide and 30-36 cm deep with well-draining holes. You can sow thyme seeds either indoors or outdoors in warm climates and the optimum temperature for seed germination is between 15-25°C.  
Thyme Seeds Sowing Method 
Select a seedling tray or small-sized pot (up to 12 cm deep), fill it with a growing medium such as coco peat or perlite, and spread the thyme seeds over it, then cover with a thin layer of soil over the seeds. Water gently and keep the soil moist. Place the seedling tray in a dark place for the seeds to germinate. Thyme seeds germinate in about 2-4 weeks. After the seeds have germinated, when the plant reaches 8-10 cm tall, you can transplant it into larger pots or grow bags. Spacing should be maintained during planting as thyme requires air circulation, especially in hot or humid conditions. Thyme should be planted in a large pot about 30-60 cm apart.
Best Fertilizer For Thyme Plants
Thyme plants don’t require additional fertilizer, just apply a diluted all-purpose fertilizer (such as mustard cake and vermicompost) every spring.
