Your Questions About Grow Herbs In Pots
Michael asks…What are easy herbs to grow in pots?I don't have a garden, only a very small balcony area outside my apartment, but I'd love to start growing some herbs (even easy vegetables?). The balcony only gets sunlight during the morning, then the afternoon it's pretty much in full shade.
