BASIL SEED Basil must have warm conditions, and prefers moist, rich, well-drained soil with pH of 6. Seedlings are slow-growing and delicate. Sow seed, 1/8" deep, in summer or indoors in late spring. When the seedlings appear, thin the plants to 1 foot apart. Susceptible to frost and cold. Water at mid-day not in the evening; avoid overwatering seedlings to prevent mildew. Basil is highly subject to heat and drought stress, and will "go to seed" quickly. (HB02) BASIL GENOVESE ITALIANO CLASSICO (68 days) The true 'pesto' basil, this classic should not be missed.
