Soil Preparation

• Pots are perfect for growing all herbs when kept indoors or under a covered porch. Dill grows best in a raised bed or plot.
• Fill a large pot with a fresh bag of potting mix or mix your own plot of soil with compost. 

Planting the Seed

• Loosen the soil with a fork
• Sprinkle the seeds and rake in.
• Keep seeds well watered so that soil is consistently moist but not waterlogged.

More Tips

• Parsley, dill and coriander need good amounts of sunshine while mint grows best with some shade and plenty of moisture. 
• For indoor planting, herbs can be sown all year round.
• For outdoor planting, sow herbs from October and during the Summer months.
