DIY Indoor Herb Garden
An indoor herb garden is the perfect first step into gardening. Small investment and tasty rewards if successful.
For my garden I started with four herbs I know I’ll use - cilantro, for Taco Tuesday, oregano, basil, and parsley.
I mounted some cute little baskets from Amazon on my command center board. Searched high and low before I landed on the perfect little galvanized buckets with chalkboard labels, and grabbed my herbs and soil from Walmart.
Mounted Wall Baskets
First, I hung my wall mounted baskets that would hold my herb containers.
I have seen several different ways that people have done this. So get creative for your own situation. Me personally, I saw that I had the room on my command center wall board and went with that.
Prepared The Herb Garden Containers
Since they will be indoors and not planted in regular pots, you have to give them a way to drain.
So I put rocks down in the bottom of the containers to allow for drainage. I used rocks like these in the bottom of my containers.
I sat the herb with the soil from its original container in the "pot" and then filled around it with MiracleGro Indoor potting soil.
Water!
