Does the Herbs for Pets really work indoors?

Does the Chia Pet Herb Garden really work indoors? How? What herbs grow well indoors?
I was always under the assumption that one could only grow heartier herbs indoors like rosemary, etc., and that basil would be a little more difficult.
But the Chia Pet Herb Garden includes basil seeds in its box. Does it grow well indoors?

Basil grows well under special florescent greenhouse lights. You can purchase them at most all hardware stores including the big chain stores. A hydroponic indoor garden works well with herbs. You have be diligent in keeping the water at the proper level and the nutrients in the water. As with any garden your results will greatly depend on your management and inputs. You will have a lot of fun growing the herbs and that's what it is really all about. Just have fun. I wish you well with your garden.

I have never seen a Chia pot work. What usually happens is there is an initial burst of greenery and then the whole thing dies. Herbs grow great indoors but are done best in their own pot rather than a chia form. Basil, sage, oregano will all do well in a house that has plenty of light. Herbs are sun lovers. Chives in pots do really well and taste great. The more you cut them the more chives come back.
