BRINGING HERBS INSIDE

I had a question about this and thought others of you might be interested in how to go about planting herbs inside for winter cooking.

After you dig up a few healthy looking sections of the herb, rinse off the leaves AND the roots to get rid of any unwanted critters that may be clinging to the plant.

Mix some potting soil (NOT from the garden) with some soil-less planting medium like vermiculite in a clean pot, and plant your newly cleansed herb in the pot. Keep the "soil" damp, but not soaked; put it in a sunny window and enjoy it throughout winter!
