Herbs can make any dish extra flavourful and nutritious. Here is how you can make your own mini windowsill herb garden:

Step 1

Choose a windowsill in your home that gets at least 6 hours of sunlight.

Step 2

Choose the right container by ensuring it has enough drainage holes to prevent over-watering. You can place a saucer underneath to keep your sill clean.

Step 3

Layer the container with potting soil at the bottom and place the herb plant inside it.

Step 4

Add more potting soil around the plant so it stays firm in its place. Leave some space for watering.

Step 5

Water the plant and drain any access water that gets collected in the saucer. Harvest your herbs regularly to encourage healthy growth.
