Basil (again)
July 15, 2013
I go something unusual yesterday afternoon: sunshine
So I managed to snap a few update pics that I’ll post over the next couple of days while I’ll holed up @ a business “thing”.
First one:
Last year’s basil success seems to be repeatable albeit after a slow start. I have 5 or 6 kinds this year, with an abundance of the nice sweet globe type as well as large leaf Italian…
Presto, it is pesto time. (Groan)

I am growing Lettuce Leaf Basil (Berton Seeds), plus saved seed from last year

Have heard of it but never seen/tasted it.
Do you use any Rock Dust, or greensand for trace minerals?
Composted dairy manure and bonemeal, plus daily irrigation. It loves water I have found.
