Starting an indoor herb garden from seed is a great way to continue gardening during the winter months when snow and cold temperatures make doing anything outdoors next to impossible.  The herbs will provide you with a hit of green, and make delicious fresh additions to your cooking.

Here’s what you need to know and how you can get started in 5 minutes. . .

Disclaimer: I garden in zone 3b in the Canadian Prairies, while I generally try to make what I write applicable to as many zones as possible, your results may differ for better or worse if you live elsewhere.  However, I love learning about what grows best in other areas, so please share your experience in the comments with me so we can all learn more.

Due to the time of year I created this post and how far North I live, I needed to fake the herbs in this picture so that my blog would still look pretty.  I’ve shown you my real results in this post and explained why things didn’t work out the way I had hoped.
