📝 Care Instructions
1
Choose Your Pot: Select a pot with drainage holes. Terra cotta pots work wonderfully for herbs as they allow roots to breathe.
2
Use Quality Soil: Fill pots with well-draining potting mix. Add perlite for extra drainage.
3
Planting: Gently remove herb from nursery container, loosen roots, and place in pot. Fill with soil and press gently.
4
Watering: Water thoroughly until it drains from bottom. Then water according to each herb's specific needs.
5
Sunlight: Place in appropriate sun location. Most herbs need at least 4-6 hours of sunlight daily.
6
Harvesting: Pinch off leaves regularly to encourage bushier growth. Never remove more than 1/3 of the plant at once.
