Basil, mint, chives, parsley and oregano thrive in pots indoors.
Rosemary, thyme and sage prefer outdoor sun and lean soils.
Choose pots with drainage holes; 20–30 cm depth suits most herbs.
Use a free-draining potting mix; add perlite if soil compacts.
Deep, infrequent watering beats shallow daily splashes.
Snip in the morning; never take more than a third at once.
Bundle and hang in a dark, ventilated space; jar when crumbly.
Rotate annuals, mulch perennials, and feed lightly in growing season.
Start with a single ingredient, learn how it behaves in food or tea, then expand. Most people overcomplicate this; simple wins.
Common culinary uses are generally safe; concentrated supplements and essential oils require professional guidance.
Choose vendors with transparent sourcing, ideally organic, and buy small quantities often for freshness.
