Starting a small herb garden is an exciting project! The number of urban planter boxes you'll need isn't one-size-fits-all; it depends on your goals. First, list the herbs you use most. Common starters like basil, parsley, cilantro, mint, and rosemary are great choices. A good rule is to dedicate one medium-sized planter box (about 24 inches long) for every 2-3 herb varieties. This gives their roots space to grow. If you want individual plants, smaller boxes (12 inches) work for one herb each. For a compact garden feeding 1-2 people, 2-3 planter boxes are often perfect. Consider your space: a sunny balcony ledge might fit 2 boxes, while a patio corner could hold 4. Remember, some herbs like mint spread quickly and are best alone in a box. Start with 2 boxes for your top 4 favorite herbs. You can always add more as your green thumb grows!
