Growing herbs indoors


Have you ever tried growing herbs indoors... specifically cilantro and parsley? They don't like the Texas summer heat so I thought I'd plant them outdoors in pots now then bring them indoors for the summer. Do you think they'll grow?

Parsley will definitely grow inside so long as it gets enough light and water. Personally, I have never had any luck growing cilantro at all so I can't say. But I have grown others such as basil, tyme, etc. You should have no problem.
