How to Grow?

Planting Instructions

1. Choose a sunny location: Basil thrives in full sun, so select a bright spot with at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.
2. Prepare the soil: Use well-drained, fertile soil to ensure healthy growth.
3. Sow seeds or plant seedlings: Space plants 30 cm apart to allow for airflow and healthy growth.

Care and Maintenance

• Water regularly: Keep the soil moist but avoid waterlogging. Basil requires consistent watering to produce lush, healthy leaves.
• Pinch back leaves: Regularly pinch back the top leaves to encourage bushier growth and prevent flowering, which can reduce flavour intensity.
• Harvest frequently: The more you harvest, the more the plant will produce. Basil leaves are best harvested in the morning for maximum flavour.

With these seeds, you can enjoy fresh, fragrant basil right at home. Perfect for adding flavour to your cooking, this easy-to-grow herb is a valuable addition to any garden, whether you’re growing it indoors or outdoors.
