Growing Cardamom Indoors: A Flavorful Homegrown Spice

Harvesting Your Cardamom

• Be patient: It typically takes 2-3 years for a cardamom plant to start producing pods.
• Know when to harvest: Once the pods turn green and start to dry, they are ready for harvest.
• Dry the pods: Dry the harvested pods in a warm, dry place for several days before removing the seeds.

Growing cardamom indoors requires patience and attention to detail, but the reward of fresh, homegrown spice is well worth the effort.
