Notes

Herb, Sweet Basil

After seedlings grow 3-4 inches tall, thin so plants are 8 inches apart. Pinch back when plants are 6-8 inches tall.

Harvest: Begin when plants are 12 inches tall. Clip off the tender growing shoots and dry in a cool, airy spot. When leaves are dry, store in an airtight container. Plants can be harvested several times each season. Use in tomato dishes and salads.
