  • Hello Hind! Herbs in pots need specific care to thrive. Here are some tips to help you maintain your next herb garden: 1-Pot size: Ensure the pots are large enough with drainage holes to prevent root rot. 2-Soil type: Use well-draining soil mixed with compost. 3-Sunlight: Most herbs require 6-8 hours of sunlight daily. 4-Watering: Water consistently but avoid overwatering. Let the soil dry slightly between waterings. 5- Pruning: Regularly harvest leaves to encourage new growth and prevent the plant from becoming woody. Happy gardening!
