About 50 to 60 saffron flowers will produce about 1 tablespoon (15 mL.) of saffron spice, so keep this in mind when figuring how many to plant. But, also keep in mind that saffron crocus multiply rapidly, so in a few years time you will have more than enough. | Nourishment of HerbsWhen seeds are first planted, they need an extra bit of water in order to start the germination process. You can fertilize them once a year, though they grow fine without being fertilized as well. You can also water them if the rainfall in your area falls below 1.5 inches (4 cm.) per week. Each flower will only produce three stigmas and each saffron crocus bulb will only produce one flower. | Harvesting of kashmiri SaffronToday, the harvesting of saffron crocus is done by Manually plucking stigma of the flower .
