By waterbaby
I can't stress enough how life-changing it's been to grow my own food at home! Not only has it saved me a ton of cash, but it's ridiculously easy to keep the cycle going – just regrow or replant, and voila, endless supply without breaking the bank on store-bought goodies!
Herbs, in particular, have become my go-to. They're versatile, whether I'm brewing tea or whipping up a culinary masterpiece, plus they give my humble abode a heavenly scent and boost the indoor air quality. Seriously, it's a win-win!
If you're keen to jump on the herb-growing bandwagon, I've got just the thing for you. Check out this mind-blowing tutorial by Jaw-Dropping Facts on YouTube. They spill the beans on which herbs you can grow with nothing but water, right in the comfort of your own home.
Here's a sneak peek at some of the herbs you can nurture hydroponically:
Peppermint or Mint: Not only does this herb pack a punch in recipes and teas, but it's also a natural repellent for pesky critters like mosquitoes and ants. Snip a few stems, strip 'em of their leaves (leave a few up top), and watch 'em thrive with minimal sunlight and fuss.
Oregano: This sun-loving herb is a bit of a diva – it craves sunlight and grows like nobody's business. But hey, with a bit of TLC and maybe a sprinkle of water-soluble fertilizer, you'll have a bounty of oregano in no time.

Sage
Sage has a couple of uses and has a strong flavor which makes it best for seasoning chicken, pork, beef, duck, or other fatty meats that you want to cook. This herb is part of the mint family which means that it has a cool menthol smell, this also makes it a great herb to plant indoors. It needs moderate sunlight and water, so it grows on almost any window sill.
Basil
You can find this herb easily at grocery stores but they usually die within a few months, so while it’s healthy make sure to replant a few stems in water, then place them in your kitchen window sill, and you’ll have an endless supply of basil. This herb needs about 6 to 8 hours of sunlight a day to grow so place them in an area where they can get a lot of sun.

Stevia
This herb can grow without sunlight and you can plant it outdoors as it can grow larger along with your peppermint and oregano. This is also a natural sweetener that you can grow at home and use in your brewed tea to make it sweeter.
