When I grow herb seeds Parsley , Basil, Sorrel, Borage etc do these
expect to be potted on into gritty compost i.e. multi purpose mixed

Borage seems to grow in just about anything and be with you forever, it
seeds so easily. Parsley, Basil, Sorrel etc. we sow in John Innes No3 and
the woodier things like Thyme are sown in a mix of compost and some grit to
give good drainage.
