Have you ever been interested in starting your own garden and you don't know where to begin? Don’t worry, because growing herbs can be a fun and easy way to start your gardening experience. Herb gardens are fairly easy to start and there really is no upkeep. How Do You Keep Herbs Alive Indoors?To start with your herb garden, the garden will need nutrient rich soil, sunlight or artificial light, and a lot of water. You will need to make to sure to balance water and light to ensure the herbs are alive and are not wilting. If you prefer to avoid watering and maintaining light, I recommend using an Aerogarden and trying their 6-pack Herbs bundle pod. The pod includes easy set herbs such as: Mint, Basil, Thai basil, Parsley, Dill and Thyme. They provide everything you need, but water. As a beginner gardener, please don’t be intimidated!

Although, for herbs grown outdoors, they do produce more plentiful herbs and they seem to last longer, but I’ve never had any issues keeping herbs alive indoors. The IKEA greenhouse I used for my indoor herb garden. I produced great herbs with this greenhouse and it maintains the humidity and heat for my plants.
