Some interesting info:

If you’re planting chive seeds indoors, place the pot in a dark spot in temperatures 60 to 70 F. (15 to 21 C.) until the seeds sprout, then move them into the light. When the chives reach 6 inches, you can transplant them to the garden. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edi...ing-chives.htm

Lavender - Put the seeds through a process called "cold stratifying."[1] In this process, seeds should be placed in a sealable plastic bag filled with moist soil. Use a commercial soil specially formulated for starting seeds. Place the plastic bag with the soil and seeds inside the refrigerator and allow it to sit for three weeks. http://www.wikihow.com/Grow-Lavender-from-Seed

Lemongrass - Starting
Press the seeds gently 5mm (1/4″) into pre-moistened, sterilized seed starting mix. Use seedling trays with plastic domes, or containers sealed inside large plastic bags. Use bottom heat from a Seedling Heat Mat to maintain a soil temperature of 21°C (70°F). Keep seed trays or containers in a dark room or cupboard. Seeds should germinate in 5 to 21 days. The trick is to maintain a moist, not wet, environment. Once seedlings appear, remove the dome or plastic bag, and move them into full sun or beneath strong, full spectrum, artificial light. https://www.westcoastseeds.com/how-t...ow-lemongrass/

Oregano - As it is native to hot, arid regions, the oregano plant is perfect for growing in areas prone to drought. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edi...ow-oregano.htm
