      Herb Growing Tips

      Light:  Full sun

      Temperature:  Annual

      Watering:  Keep soil moist, do not let soil get too dry.

      Soil: Lightwell drained soil. If need you can use Plant Feed once a month. 

      Comments: never prune more than 50% of your plant's leaves, this could cause too much stress on your basil plant. Continuous trimming avoids these annuals going to seed; allowing your plant to focus more on producing foliage than blooms!
