Growing herbs at home

Growing herbs at apartment is not easy. Now, I have 10 pots of herbs, 8 pots of plants. They take a lot of times from me, whenever I want to quit on them, they won’t let me do it.

Sage, I don’t know what to do next, you’re turning to purple. You seem ok, my cook’s reference tells me that you’re best on warm and dry soils. Oops! I just gave you too much water this morning before I read the suggestion.

Dill, you are confusing me. Two pots of you guys, one pot is great and happy; other pot of you just dying. I don’t get it. You guys have the same treatment. You should be easy to grow, but need to be avoiding planting…….What can I say?

Basil, Chives and Parsley. I planted them the same day about 3 months ago, now they’re all 3-4 inches tall only. I even replaced them in better soil, but they seem don’t want to grow so fast at all. It is spring, come on! You should seize the opportunity, so I can taste you sooner. Don’t you want me to taste you? Don’t you want me to praise you in front of my guests?

Cherry tomato, Rosemary, Thyme are doing a good job so far. You guys look comfortable at least. I promise, I won’t eat you too soon.
