I have an amaryllis and the sunburnt fig at the moment. Am hoping to plant some herbs and other things as I've just moved and now have a some balcony space. Need to read up about how and when to change soil and which plant foods to add etc!

You can grow a lot on a balcony herbs are a good start, many do well in containers. Are you planing on cooking with them? We have some good cooks here.

Yes - definitely planning to cook with them! Good to know.

Nothing like eating some thing you have grown. The Harvest forum is where a lot of recipes are shared.

I agree with others, it is sunburn. Personally I would not put it outdoors. It is a house plant. I had a tall one by my glass stained window and a couple of the leaves got sunburn. I found out that stain glass reflects a different light. I've moved it to another bay window and is doing much better. I removed the 2 leaves just because it bothered me but you don't have to do that. Every once in a while, give it a little fertilizer high in nitrogen.
