Oregano Yellowing in Strawberry Pot: Drainage, Water, Space

Oregano yellow in 6-cup clay pot with rosemary/thyme. Pot too small, oregano aggressive, overwatered.

Diagnosis

• Pot: Strawberry pots cute but fail for herbs. Oregano chokes neighbors.
• Water: Every other day = too much. Weekly max.
• Light: Morning sun needed (east).

Fix

1. Separate pots (12"+ each).
2. Gritty mix.
3. Prune oregano 1/3 hard.
4. Fish fertilizer (Home Depot/Lowe's).
5. Morning sun location.

Rosemary/thyme also hate wet feet. Upgrade pots before roots bind.
