do you actually get any plants? They do die off fairly quick, si its best to get a longish tub, plant some seeds, then some more further up 2 weeks ;later then some more 2 weeks later. Than you are not left with a glut you cant eat. i would also say mix your compost with some sand or shingle for good drainage

The plants you get from supermarkets need really tender care, they are not used to living outside a controled enviroment.like never seeing real sun etc. Try seeds in a long planter with good drainage and a nice compost. Good luck
