    @Iconoclast1919 Год назад

    Weeks before I watched your video, I had bought a grocery store plant. I knew they loved moisture and watered it a day or two later, and then it almost immediately died. Do you think it's because it could not drain properly? If the leaves are wilting indicating it needs watering, how do I know how much water to add? How deep does the soil need to be moist? You answered every single question I had except with watering. I'm afraid and unsure because of my previous experience. Could you please give me a little more detail on watering the plant and how to avoid overwatering? I'm keeping the plant inside and it's still in the grocery store container for another couple of days until I can get supplies. Thank you in advance if you're able to help with a little more detail!

    • @SirPlantsaLot
      @SirPlantsaLot  Год назад

      Hi! Usually it’s a good idea to try to prevent leafy herbs from flowering because they lose their taste that way. I’m not sure if there’s any way to come back from that. You could try fertilizing the plant with some organic fertilizer and if that doesn’t work just buy another one and try again:)

    I do basil from seeds because I prefer cinnamon or Thai basil and I can't find those varieties as plants. It's really easy and cheaper to do from seeds. You can even let some of them go to seed, and they make lots of seeds. I haven't cloned basil yet, but it's my preferred way of doing tomatoes. You actually DON'T want to soak tomatoes- just cut, stick in potting mix directly and water. They just have to be an indeterminate variety, not a determinate(patio tomato).
