How to Grow Your Own Kitchen Herb Garden Windowsill Planters With Seeds

Posted on June 11, 2021

One of the most popular ways to have a kitchen herb garden is by planting herbs inside your kitchen windowsill. If you’ve ever tried to grow your own herbs at home, you know how frustrating it can be. Not only are you limited to growing what you can actually see, but you also have to deal with a lot of pesky insects. However, if you’ve got a windowsill planter, things are a whole lot easier. Plus, a kitchen herb garden will provide you and your family with many healthy and delicious herbs.

The first thing you need to do is choose which herbs you want to grow. There are literally hundreds of different types of herbs that you can grow inside a kitchen. However, just picking a handful will not do. You need to pick out which herbs you like, and start planting! If you don’t have a kitchen herb planter yet, here’s a quick guide to get you started.

To start, you need to make sure your kitchen has plenty of light coming through the windows to keep your plants healthy. Once you’ve got that covered, you can begin planting! Just remember that to have the best results, the healthier the herbs are, the more they’ll grow. You should always plant them in a separate area from your other plants. A kitchen herb container is perfect for this.

Another tip to keep in mind is to always make sure your herbs have fresh, clean soil. If you’re trying to grow seeds indoors, make sure they’re in an airtight container before putting them into the soil. This way, moisture will not dry the seeds, but instead remain within the planters. Also, make sure that your herb containers have good ventilation. Fresh air is great for growing herbs.

Next, you’ll want to choose pots that are large enough to allow room for your growing herbs, yet small enough so they won’t take up too much room. Small kitchen pots will be difficult to keep clean. But remember: bigger pots make your gardening easier. Also, choose a pot that will let air circulate around your plants, and not just air out of the bottom of the pot.

Make your own herb container using inexpensive materials such as leftover boxes, pails or drums. Or purchase a cheap glass or ceramic pot. If you don’t want to buy a new container, don’t worry. Just make sure the pots you purchase or make (the ones you’ll be growing herbs in) have good drainage to prevent your herbs from having their roots rot. And of course, you will want to line the bottom of your pots with a small layer of gravel or sand to prevent soil from draining.

For the final step, select your kitchen herb garden windowsill planter and seeds. There are many different pots available. Choose the pots that best suit your taste and budget. And then get to work – planting!

Keep in mind that you can save a lot of money by growing your herbs in your very own kitchen herb garden windowsill planter. You will also save a lot of time because you won’t have to waste time and effort on traveling to different stores in your area to find the herbs you need. Many times, the local stores will only carry a small selection of herbs that are suitable for cooking at home. Plus, buying your herbs this way will keep you from paying high prices at more expensive grocery stores for exotic herbs that you probably won’t even use in your cooking. Finally, you will be able to save a lot of money on the amount of money you spend on grocery shopping!
