Q.2

How does the Herb Station keep the herbs fresher than putting them in a glass or the fridge?

  The Herb Station keeps the living herbs fresher than putting them in a glass because the specially designed nickel coated mesh cylinder allows the herb to breath while supporting the leaves. A tall glass will rot the herbs and a short glass will not support the leaves.
The fridge is a too cold and dry environment for fresh leaf herbs. They wilt and not only look unappealing once they are retrieved from the fridge but they have lost their important nutritional value.
Q.3 Where's the best place to put my Herb Station?
  The best place for my Herb Station is out of direct sunlight, in your food preparation area. This encourages the use of your fresh herbs quickly and often.
Q.4 How often should I water my herbs?
  You should water your soil based herbs a little each day, like a pot plant. The bare root herbs and fresh herbs picked from your garden should have fresh water in the tin base daily.
Q.5 What's the difference between soil based and bare roots herbs and which works best in the Herb Station?
  Soil based herbs are those herbs which are grown in a small plastic pot filled with potting mix. Bare root herbs are hydroponic. They are grown without soil in a water based nutrient medium. Both styles are sutiable for your Herb Station.
Q.6 Can I put herbs from my garden in the Herb Station?
  Herbs from your garden are perfect in your Herb Station. You can pick several herbs from your garden, parsley, rosemary, chives and put them like a bunch of flowers in your Herb Station. This encourages you to use more of you fresh nutrious herbs more often, as you have them on hand while you prepare a meal. Rather than going our to the garden each time.
Q.7 Can I use the Herb Station for other plants?
  Fresh asparagus or spring onions sitting in your herb station with a little water in the tin base keeps it fresh and staight.
