That first one is a nice big basil plant! A complete basil bed with different varieties - wonderful :)
"Very important"! basil is a cross-pollinating plant. If someone is trying to strictly grow a particular variety of basil the pollen from one basil will mix with the other and create a new hybrid in the seeds. Therefore isolation of the plant(s) from other similar family members is required to isolate the breed. Also if one is searching for a new flavor/aroma or both, the basil is a perfect plant for experimenting with. I accidentally came across this info when one of my basil plants produced seeds to a plant unlike itself. Then I realized it was a mix of the two different basils I had side by side. I now have 30 different varieties of basils, most are hybrids, that smell and taste wonderful. One of them could easily be mistaken for black liquorish. As always thanks for your videos Mr John and I hope this information was helpful to anyone whom needed it. :)
Hey I don’t know if you are are ever going to see this comment but I want to say Thank you. Thank you for this information because I want to get my hands on African Blue Basil which is a cross between opal basil and basil olicendum (or something like that) but the thing is being isolated in an igloo (Canadian heeheehee and no, I don’t actually live in an igloo) with most nurseries around not carrying my exotic plant needs (I actually have a PHD but by PHD I mean Plant Hoarder Disorder but it is otherwise known as CPCD or compulsive plant collector disorder and now when it is too rainy as today (yes I live in a rainforest that finally got some rain after a long hot summer...aka, Vancouver, BC) I have both the advantage of watching John and the disadvantage because he does awesome videos and link ones (and according to a company in New Zealand selling composts has brought them lots of business) but he also feeds my desire to have more plants like a bartender greedy for tips would supply an alcoholic. However, John is forgiven because he has no idea of this addiction he feeds but back you. I am so happy you supplied this information because if I cannot find the right basil, I will just plant different varieties, collect the seeds and plant until I get the African Blue Basil...but see you too have done something dangerous....loaded me with information.....hahaha...and the hail and rain storm stopped and sun is out so I am going back outside but sadly this is to bury our dead fish but close to the azalea of course.
I let my basil flower and go to seed last yr. This spring I had hundreds of little n=baby basils popping up. I shoulda sold them, but didn't ...Still have the basil children growing, giving me leaves & pesto. Yum!
I am 73 and have never tasted Basil. It sounds like I should try it sometime.
Loren Shelby Did you ever try it?
So did you try basil yet? You really should.
I like the standard Italian basil , Greek, which is a perennial here and the Thai or holy basil - all different, but great for adding a flavor boost raw or cooked :)
I can't do without it but then I'm a pro Cilantro person too. Cilantro is one of those love/hate things.
In my country we grow basil that grows like a big shrub with a woody stem and is has medium leaves
what country are you from. I am from USA,,,,
CustomGardenSolutions Cyprus 🇨🇾 a small Mediterranean island above Egypt (we are in the EE )
I wonder if that is African Blue Basil?
I wish I could see the kind of person who gives a video like this a thumbs down.
Anyways, awesome stuff as usual.
OK... Yes I make Basil tea almost every morning. Some times I switch between ginger tea:-). I'm going to try some if those larger plants you mention. Great video for anyone thinking about growing Basil.
John, this was a grand slam video, with all the basils loaded!
I love basil. I use it both raw and dehydrated. I have to dehydrate some because I always grow way too much. Thanks for the video John.
Wow didn't know there were so many different varieties. I only planted genovese basil but I did get some thai basil seedlings but they are growing really slowly. I don't think any nurseries around here have so many different varieties. I'll have to see if I can get my hands on some seeds for next year. I added the purple ruffles and the pesto perpetuo to my wishlist.
:) miracle crap haha love it, thnx for sharing. I began growing Holy Basil this yr and pick about 10 leaves a day along with some mint leaves and steep in about 1/2 gal water that I bring to a boil. I sip on it nearly all day. It is amazing how it has helped eliminate the nausea and hot flashes I have been having for over a yr.I am impressed with this plant and want to keep it as a part of my life from now on.
Hey John...Great video, thank you! Like someone else here said, I thought I was doing good with 5 varieties, but that is why I call you my garden guru! I did have one I don't believe you had (and I'm sure there are more varieties) and I planted it from seed. It's Albahaca-greek mini basil. It has a taste very similar to the globe basil. K.O.G.!
Mmm... I LOVE making basil pesto! So good! - Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... Character & Personality make someone more or less beautiful.
Wow! I was not aware of all the different varieties of basil. Thanks!
I have been growing basil in my nft system Really does good
Hey John...those blooming herbs are HIGHLY beneficial for your bees!!!! Keep some basil blooming!!!! Medicinals are very very necessary for all pollinators...the beneficial health properties are available for all creatures if we allow them to produce blooms...
Thats a good idea. My 2 sun flowers are really popular amongst variety of bees that I see. One the flowers is over 2.60 meters
Hello john my basil plant leaves are forming holes in leaves what should I do thanks
i have tasted the genovese basil, (from my garden) it's very good in salad with tomatoes and cucumbers, and on the pizza
Thanks John
John totally dig your videos growing a garden for the first time this year.. In upstate ny my initial excitement verses my knowledge are teaching me many lessons this year lol... Keep the vids coming totally enjoy them
Love your videos! Such great content.
Great job John! Love your channel. Keep up the good work!
Very good
Hi John I absolutely love basil I started growin all kinds of it in my backyard thanks to your videos, I read online though that if I want to have Thai basil lemon basil etc. next year I have to keep my basals from cross pollinating is that true? Or will they just grow back on their own the next year? If I need to keep them from cross pollinating how do I do that?
Basal???
Mint is the king of the herbs
African Blue Basil is my favorite. Just AWESOME. It's a perennial in SoCal.
Justin Hulse it's great to attract bees, too.
Trying to find one in Canada.
I love lemon basil..
Cool John
praise john
Hahah. Yes everyone has a unique taste. My garden is beautiful to me....
Compost tea is wonderful stuff and it's great as a foliar feed. But when I used it, I was always careful to only apply it to the soil and to non-consumable parts of my plants. I noticed that you dumped it all over the edible leaves and everything... aren't you worried about eating poop?
Hey John, I just want to say that I appreciate your videos. You definitely have a lot of good knowledge to share and do a good job doing so.
But I can't help to notice in the beginning of this video, you said something about some people not being allowed to grow vegetables. I was curious about this.. Are there some places where there are government rules or something?
Hey mate, thanks for the info. You said something about putting bug poop in your soil. Do you have any kind of quick methodfor collecting it?
F.Y.I. for everyone- there's actually 4 different types of Holy Basil; Rama, Krishna, Vana and Kapoor. Kapoor holy basil is the most common.
I've used mychorrhizae yet, but I would have thought adding it to the pot a week prior to planting would be the way to go - let them get establishing on the roots before planting?
In your opinion do you think boogie brew tea is as helpful as homemade healthy compost tea?
I am growing the Red Ruben 16:55 and the bugs have eaten the crap out of it and left the other varieties alone LOL! I like fresh Cinnamon Basil leaves added to lettuce as a topping on a garden fresh salad.
There's a tool that's used by the lawn sprinkler man to dig up the sprinkler heads. That would be great for making multiple 4 inch planting holes.
And I thought I was doing something with 5 varieties.
ArkansasJay You too? And I thought I had a ton of plants too. Lol.
Wait...you live in Vegas???? I thought you were in CA. I live in Henderson!! I noticed my Basil does really good. This is my first year having a raise garden bed. Learning a lot. My grandmother was telling me that we have a farmers market. I'm looking forward to seeing what we can grow out here and maybe some tips. Right now I have something eating my plants. Really lost on what to do. Anyways, I love your videos and hope I can support my family by growing my own veggies.
Do you know which variety of Basil has the most pungent aroma? I plan on planting basil around my peppers as a form of insect repellant. I'm sure most would work but....
Hi, I just bought a plant of sweet basil at the supermarket and I would like to repot it And place it in my back yard. I am a little worried about pests and insects killing it.... Do you have any suggestion for a natural organic remedy or home made recipe for an effective pesticide? I would like to avoid using chemical products. Thank you :-)
I planted some basil and it's turning yellow and the bugs love it.
You can generally tell if there is enough water if the soil looks brown instead of dark grey or black especially if you used compost as a component of the soil.
i haven't seen you do any seed starting anymore. i don't think i've ever seen you do seed starts.
basil, basil, love basil! Aum Aum Aum to the basil god.
So Basil is still good once it flowers? As far as taste and what not. I am going to assume that its ok to top off the basil once it flowers and it will continue to grow...
Oh my I would be in heaven with a basil garden like that! I like to trim mine though out the summer and put it in the food chopper and than freeze them in small ice cubes Yum Yum, Great for soups/stir fries and it's wonderful to add to your meals in the middle of winter :) what do you do with all your basil?
Try salt..place an inch of sea salt in the bottom of a canning jar. Alternate layering clean, dry, whole basil leaves and salt until the jar is full. The salt draws out moisture from the leaves and take on the flavor of the herb you are using. It's like having fresh basil all winter plus basil flavoured salt
@@vidordaylat1571 Simply AMAZING.....Thx
Hoping to grow my own garden coming this spring. =) still planning but i would really like someone to see my plan so I know I am screwing myself up by planting bad combos of plants
TheOmegaLeaf Following up on yesterday here is my garden that i plan on planting docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gLYzymoIK4jN5e0D_PkZ6IN6F-gR30G8b_cMkoNhHE0/edit?usp=sharing

I don't think its a bad combination of plants. the cool part about growing is, its all about what you like, grow what you like to eat! with that being said, it'd be a good idea, especially if its your first season there, is to grow a larger variety of plants. then you'll have a better idea of what grows well and not so well, so you can dial it in better and better over the years. have fun!
Seems like it would been faster/easier to clip it all back, rather than put in the stakes and strings..right?
Soylent Green Is people! That's Tuesday food though.
how many plants are in one pot?
post the link where u got that lemon basil please!
Seeds now has them
Small holes are great ....
My Basil is growing like a creeper along the ground, It dies back in winter and comes back as along the ground like a creeper, is this normal.
Are different basil varieties capable of cross pollinating with each other?
Yes
22:45 Badumtssh
