Watering
Ensure the soil is consistently moist but well-drained, allowing it to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.
Light
To promote vigorous growth and maximize essential oil production, place oregano in a sunny location with at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Soil
Use well-draining, sandy loam soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0 enriched with organic matter to support oregano's nutrient uptake and aromatic development.
Additional Tips
Regularly prune oregano to encourage bushy growth, harvest leaves frequently to stimulate new growth.
