1. Add Pebbles in the Jar
Add a 1-2 inches bottom layer of small pebbles in the jar.
2. Add Charcoal & Potting mix
Add charcoal and then potting mix to the jar. Be careful not to fill up the jar to the brim.
4. Ready for Planting Herbs
This is how the three-layers will look and help in the proper drainage for the herbs. Since this mason jar planter has no drainage holes, you’ll need to be precise about watering. Water only when soil seems dry.
5. Potting Herbs in Jar
Put the baby herb plants of your choice carefully in the jar without causing any harm and cover the roots with soil properly. To get an idea of which herbs you should grow, read this article here.
