ok so this year I decided to start a herb garden. But I do it all via potted plants as it is winter, and even if it were summer time, there is no garden around my apartment.
At the local supermarket I have gotten thyme, sage and oregano. I have also acquired some basil. But it isn't doing so well.
I purchased an LED grow light. It has blue and red LED's to help with growing and seeding... Its all confusing. But the herbs seem to be doing quite well. I would like to get a bigger light and get more herbs.
Any tips? What should I get for my herb garden. Is it better to start with seeds or get plants. Overall, I've found that plants do allright. Except for the basil. I posted about that in another thread. I have been giving it lots of light. I put the light on the basil during the night and the rest of the herbs and plants (I have 3 flower plants too) during the day. Should I switch it up?
The basil seems to be getting water fine. It just seems to be withering and drying up. Should I try seeds next time? Is there a way to save it?
