How to Make an Indoor Self-Watering Herb Garden

 

### Steps to Create Your Self-Watering Herb Garden:

1. **Choose Your Container**: Select a pot with a reservoir or create your own by using a plastic container with drainage holes.

2. **Gather Materials**: You’ll need potting soil, a wick (like cotton rope), water, and your choice of herb seeds or seedlings.

3. **Prepare the Wick**: Insert the wick into the reservoir. Ensure one end is in the water and the other is in the soil to draw moisture.

4. **Fill with Soil**: Add potting soil to the container, leaving enough space for your herbs.

5. **Plant Your Herbs**: Sow your herb seeds or plant seedlings according to their spacing requirements.

6. **Water Initially**: Fill the reservoir with water and allow the wick to draw moisture up into the soil.

7. **Place in a Sunny Spot**: Position your garden where your herbs can receive 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.

8. **Monitor Water Levels**: Check the reservoir periodically and refill as needed.

With your self-watering herb garden, you can enjoy fresh herbs year-round without the stress of constant care!
