Have You Consider a Potted Herb Garden?
There are many reason to grow your herbs in pots. One really good reason is because you do not have a yard in which to grow any kind of garden. Maybe you only have a patio or a balcony or perhaps you live in an apartment without any outside patio or balcony. That should not be a deterrent, because you can grow herbs in pots.
Consider this… if you grow your herbs in pots you can place them anywhere. You can move them around. If they need lots of sunshine you can place them in an area where they will get all of the sunlight they need. If they do not require as much light you can move them to an area where the sun will not shine on them all day long. If you are unable to place them in sunlight you can use artificial lighting.
They will, of course, need to be watered so if you locate them where they will be easily accessed this will be no problem. You can also move them to where the water is so they can be watered easily.
Once your plants are matured you will be able to have them close by so you can trim them for use in the kitchen either to make tea or season you favorite dishes.
If you do place them outside on the patio or balcony you will even be able to bring them inside during the colder time of the year and enjoy you fresh herbs during the off seasons.
If you grow them inside their beauty will add to the ambiance of the room in which you place them.
So you can see there are many good reasons to grow your herbs in pots. You should not deprive yourself from the joys of growing fresh herbs for any reason. Herb gardening is a relaxing and rewarding hobby which is very good for you health.
