Indoor herbs are obviously needed to be contained in pots. Other alternatives are window boxes and hanging baskets. If you’re growing an indoor herb garden, you won’t find it any easier or any harder than growing an outdoor garden. They’re still herbs; hence need the same basic things.

All plants need to survive is soil, water, and sunlight. Herbs are plants, thereby needing the exact same things. Herbs need to be positioned where they’ll get adequate sunlight. The best places for indoor herbs to grow and get plenty of sunshine are in the kitchen or near a window. Each herb needs a different amount of sunshine, but all of them need a sunny location. Some growers use special fluorescent lamps to provide additional light to their herbs. The soil should be well-drained, so it needs to be not too rich. Mix coarse sand or perlite to potting soil at a 1:2 proportion to make the best soil for herbs. There should be about an inch of gravel in the bottom of each pot for good drainage. Supplement the soil by keeping it sweet with about a teaspoon of lime per 5-inch pot. Herbs need water as well. Moisten the pebbles in the pot, and mist the plants to keep them in the humidity that they need. Indoor herbs do not have the advantage of dew, so they’ll need more water than outdoor herbs – but never drench the roots.

Perhaps the greatest thing about an indoor herb is that you can move them around since. Annual herbs can live indoors without being moved, but perennials should be outside on summertime. Perennials should be moved back indoors at first frost. This is often the mistake of mint, chive, and tarragon growers. These three particular herbs grow better after exposure to light frost, and go into rest period before it.

All herbs can be contained, but there are those that grow better in containers than others. Mint is one herb that should be contained if you don’t want it to overrun your garden. Growing an indoor herb garden is not complicated at all. It’s even made easier since you have your herbs in arms reach if you need them, say, for cooking. With the tips mentioned here, you’re on your way to raising healthy herbs indoors. Feed them artificial light, and repot those that need so every year. You also need to know which herbs would need to be moved as the climate changes, and know which ones would need light supplements. Harvest your herbs and use them – there’s no sense in letting them rot in your garden. Plant growth is promoted with pruning. This goes for herbs as well. Use them, store them, sell them, or give them away to grateful friends.
