I have a very small deck but live in a cold climate; looking for a way to have a great mini herb and spice garden indoors during winter and move in the summer to my small deck? Also I get the eastern sunrise.

    Begin with planter boxes or large terra cotta pots. Make sure the containers offer growing space because herbs love to stretch out above and under the soil. Since you're in a apartment I would go with already mixed soil from the nursery. (Buy in bags) and then choose a selection of herbs you want to grow. Get Started in the spring when freezing temperatures are no longer a risk. In the meantime you can start in stages so the cost of getting started is spread out. You can plant by seed or purchase plants in the spring in nurseries.
