Hi All,

I am a complete amateur and have no idea what I'm doing. I thought I'd better let you know that in advance as any responses really have to be basic enough for my simple mind to understand.

Anyway.... I bought a couple of plastic, oblong containers to try and grow a basic herb garden. Among the herbs I bought was roquette and coriander. 2 of the roquette plants and the coriander plant have turned into mini trees and in both cases I have lost all of the leaves and gained seeds (in the case of the coriander) and seed pods (in terms of the roquette).

Can anyone tell me what has happened? Have I done anything wrong? What can I do to try and get some leaves back on the plants (my cooking is missing them)?

Many thanks in advance.

John
