How to grow basil from seed

published on 27 June, 2018 at 15:25
Method:
 
Fill half of a pot with soil and sprinkle the seeds. On top of these, apply a layer of soil that is not too thick so as not to "suffocate" them. Avoid that the plants are exposed to low temperatures, they must be at a temperature of at least 15 degrees.  As long as they don't germinate they don't need much sun, but it is still important for them to be exposed in a bright place. Water 4/5 days a week with plenty of water. After 15 days the germination begins and we see the first shoots appear. After a month, transplant the shoots in another pot (one per pot) with a fork so as not to move the soil too much. After a month and a half our plant is ready to be transplanted into your garden, but be careful not to push it  too much into the soil.
