Hi there,

I am not sure this is the right section for this questions, but I am new to plants and flowers and I'd like to grow basil,coriander,parsley,chives in flower pots.Is it possible? (I dont have a garden...so flow pots are the only option).

My experience is that these herbs (when I get them from the supermarket) die fast. I really dont know why. Maybe I overwater them, or their soil is not rich enough in nutrients.

Anyways....I'd like to learn how to keep them alive for a few months (how to water them, what soil to use, where to keep them) and how to pick the leaves for my food without killing them.

How do I start? I assume I just get the seeds....but then again I need instructions as to how to plant the seeds, what to do with the younglings, when and how much water to use, what kind of soil....etc.....

Cheers
