Most herb plants like low acid PH levels in the soil.
They also thrive in the same conditions as vegetables plants.
You may want to test your soil before starting a herb garden.
You can always amend the soil with nutrients at a later date. Weeds will suck up all the nutrients from the soil.
So remember to pull out all weeds whenever possible

I done a quick Internet search and found this website with useful info on herb gardens. It explains each plant and it's uses.
