Often described as 'feminine ginseng,' the roots of ashwagandha are deeply medicinal, both tonic and adaptogenic, allowing our bodies to adapt to stress with greater resilience. If you're looking for easy-to-grow medicinal herbs to restore and revitalize, Ashwagandha and Tulsi basil are at the top of our list. At Fruition, we sow ashwagandha in soil blocks four weeks before final frost to transplant after final frost with one foot between plants.
