How big is the planter diesel? Don't put the mint in it!
Coriander is difficult to growl as it is quick to bolt.

Of course the planters need to be watered, stick your finger in an inch if the compost is dry water them.
I agree with mazie...keep the mint in a pot by itself - otherwise, it will over-run everything else.
I have parsley and (my favourite) tarragon outside. Basil is better indoors in a sunny window because greenfly love it.
Most herbs do better in full sun and the more they get, the better the taste.
One herb that you can't really go wrong with is chives, they're perenials, so you can cut them to flavor salads and sarnies and they'll come back. I've had some in 8inch terracotta pots for donkeys years!
