Can we talk about skipping fertilizer for balcony herbs?
I had this EPIPHANY last summer when my basil plants went CRAZY without any extra feed. Everyone says to use plant food, but I found that good soil and sunlight are enough. My herbs tasted stronger and grew fuller than my friend's who used all the fancy stuff. Now I save money and have healthier plants. It just shows that sometimes less is more.

Remember feeling the same way when my mint went wild without any extra help! I used plain soil and good sunlight, and the plants were stronger than ever. It really proves that simple care is often the best approach!

You know, I always thought you had to use fertilizer. But seeing your basil go crazy without it totally changed my mind.
