Sowing and care

Sow seeds thinly in a prepared tray, pot or seedbed, covering them with a fine layer of growing medium. Keep the surface gently moist and provide bright light and warmth. Once seedlings are sturdy and have true leaves, separate crowded plants carefully so each has space to grow. Acclimatise indoor-raised seedlings before moving them outdoors. Water the soil when needed, allowing excess water to drain away. Once plants are established, pinch the growing tips and pick small amounts regularly to encourage branching. Remove developing flower stems if your main aim is continued leaf picking.

Growing notes

Grow basil during a warm season suited to your location and protect young plants from cold weather. Add freshly picked leaves to your cooking as needed. The exact time to a usable harvest depends on local conditions and care. Keep picking gentle while young plants build their first branches.
