Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation required. Basil seeds are ready to plant directly from the packet.

Sowing:

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date.
Fill seed-starting trays or pots with a quality seed-starting mix.
Sow seeds on the surface of the soil and cover lightly with a thin layer of soil or vermiculite.
Water gently to moisten the soil.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days.
Maintain a soil temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for optimal germination.
Ensure consistent moisture during the germination period, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed.
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.
Plant seedlings 12-18 inches apart in well-drained soil enriched with organic matter.
Choose a location with full sun.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering.
Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Pruning: Pinch back the tops of the plants regularly to encourage bushier growth and prevent flowering, which can cause the leaves to become bitter.
Harvesting: Harvest leaves as needed once the plant is established, typically 6-8 weeks after planting. Harvest in the morning for the best flavor.

Happy Gardening!
