DIY Herb Mason Jars

Mason jar DIY has been exploding lately, and I love anything to do with a mason jar! The Mason jar indoor garden is ideal for herb gardens, and a favorite among urban centre dwellers who might not have space for an earthen garden of their own! Since these herbs are being grown in solid mason jars there’s no easy way to keep the water from settling in the soil. Well, actually there is. Just fill the bottom of your mason jar with about an inch of small pebbles. This allows the water to drain down to the bottom and keeps the roots from sitting in excess water.
It’s important to not over-water your herbs. The soil should be moist (not drenched) in water. Place your jar in a window that gets the most light! Check out full directions over at evermine.com! Make sure you check out other projects on their page, click the link below!
