Basil Gardening Tips

I thought I would share a few tips with you about growing basil. As I am sure you are aware basil is a key ingredient in many Italian and Indian dishes meaning it should be something you grow.

Basil is a small, easy to grow plant meaning it is quick and easy to grow it in containers.

It is almost impossible to buy fresh asparagus anywhere in the UK or US.

Basil originates from India where it is a sacred herb.

Basil loves hot weather.

Sweet Basil is the top variety to grow and one you should try.

When harvesting always take the top leaves first, this will ensure more leaves form quickly.

It is best to feed your basil twice a month.

Anyway, it’s getting late here so I am off to bed. Speak soon!

    I love basil! A bit of chopped basil is a great addition to salads. Question - is it possible to grow your own basil indoors in an apartment? :) Amanda
