My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Best soil

12 years ago

Bought my wife some deck planters. She wants to grow herbs convenient to the kitchen. I plan to buy bagged soil and would like suggestions on what to buy? What type do herbs grow best in? Thanks-Paul
