Planting Indoors: Growing an Herb Garden — powered by ExpertVillage.com
Jose Zuriga doesn’t know a thyme plant from a basil plant (he confuses the two in this video – check it out) but he manages to convey some useful information anyway in 2 mins, 23 seconds. This video is part of a video series entitled “How to grow a herb garden indoor or outdoor.”
Essentially you plant an indoor herb garden in pots, one to several plants per pot. Fill each pot halfway with organic soil, then loosen the plant’s roots by squeezing the nursery bag. Take the plug of soil out gently and transplant it to the pot. Build up soil gently around it and then tamp it down firmly.
The big message here is that you should not over-water your potted herb plants. They don’t like being swamped. They want well-drained soil. And if you are keeping them in your kitchen, don’t put them anywhere near the stove or they will get burned to death.
