How do I protect a balcony herb garden from strong coastal wind?

Our answer

Use a permeable windbreak panel and heavy low pots; keep airflow rather than enclosing the herbs in an airtight box.

Why this approach makes sense

Identify the species or condition before changing treatment. Similar-looking leaf damage and insect activity can have different causes.

Before you try it

Follow local wildlife and plant-care guidance; avoid treatment that harms non-target animals.
