Description: 150+ PCS GENOVESE BASIL SEEDS | FAST GROWING | 95% GERMINATION (1 bag includes 150+ seeds) Basil plants are popularly grown indoors just as readily as they are planted outdoors in containers, planters, and the garden bed. Most varieties of basil are native to the reliably wet, humid tropics of southeast Asia and Africa and still require the same consistently moist conditions for a flavorful and booming harvest.A member of the mint family, culinary basil grows, habits, and looks very similar to garden mint. Yet unlike mint, the basil plant has more diverse varieties in color and flavor such as Cinnamon, Lemon, Licorice, and Spicy. Native to much of Asia, basil thrives in many temperate climates with regular moisture and no extremes in heat or cold.As basil is a natural insect repellent, this larger-sized basil variety also makes an ideal companion plant. Place your Genovese Basil in a container near your tomatoes in the summer for bold flavor, better growth, and to help prevent pests. GERMINATION:1. Soak seeds into water between 100F 105F, 38C-41C for 15 to 20 hours. Soaking seeds before planting helps to break down the seed's natural defenses which allows them to germinate faster.2. Take seeds out. Place seeds in clean moisten paper towel. Fold paper towel and keep it in ziploc bag and place ziploc bag in dark and warm place (75F-85F ). Make sure paper towel is always moist and spray water as needed. After 7-15 days, seeds should germinate.3. Use potting mix or seedling soil to plant seeds. Plant seeds at a depth equal to two or three times their width. Make sure to spray twice daily to keep the ground moist (but not too wet). -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please Check out our store for other kinds of seeds!
