Adding a tiny bit of organic starter fertilizer to each pot after planted helps with the adjustment from water to soil. My Noni had a never ending supply of basil plants growing on her kitchen windowsill. The light was perfect. She made the best pasta sauce I have ever tasted and besides the tomatoes the next ingredient was lots of fresh basil. Yum! She had a cardinal rule: always use fresh basil, fresh parsley and fresh garlic, never dried! Miss my Noni and her incredible cooking. 🍝🌿

And, if you wind up with more basil than you can use it freezes well. Pick leaves from the stems and put them in a good-quality ziplock freezer bag. Thaw out a handful as needed-if you want the leaves chopped, bash the frozen leaves in the bag, they will shatter into small pieces. Don’t freeze for more than a few months as the taste and scent will eventually fade.

@PhilLesh697 ай бұрын
You can also use an exacto knife or razor blade and peel a very thin layer of the stem at the very bottom and/or dip the stem in honey or a commercial rooting hormone and then place directly into a starter pot and a good potting soil mix. Once your new clones have taken hold you can use supercropping to make the plant grow bushier and produce more branches and leaves. That's when you pinch (or slice with a sterile blade or clippers) the top new leaf node on a branch, forcing the two lower side nodes to begin growing like their own new branches.

As you mentioned, all the stems in the pot are individual plants. Just replant them 2/3 per pot, and you're golden. No need to propagate, wait for them to grow roots or anything. The plants are already adjusted to soil, in contrast to propagated plants. Break up the soil in the pot from the supermarket, clean off the old soil under running water and untangle the roots gently, replant, done! Although, propagating plants is fun though.

Going to try growing a source of Royal Thai basil this year after finding seeds; will keep this in mind after they're plants to increase the amount we have. We've NEVER had supermarket purchased basil start wilting and dying before it got used up in cooking. But the containers it's sold in here look like they're about twice the size of what you're showing, maybe three times as much. They do have lots and lots of stems in them so I assume the roots are similarly packed. A thought: if the complaint is that the supermarket potted basil wilts/dies before you can use it all, and this shows root development and healthy leaves two weeks later... couldn't you also do this to extend the health of the shoots long enough to when you need them for your culinary endeavors? Thanks for the informative video!

Cinnamon 5.) vinegar 6.) dry out the soil totally, heat the pot and plant it over again. 7.) the yellow sticky stickers! I must say that the Yellow stickers, optil now, is the only thing that works against the flies.. the larve however, in due time, will hatch again .. but then i put new yellow stickers and those flies will stick and die., hopefully without having laid eggs already. So that works..but you have to repeat the stickers again and again.. So i wondered if there was something to make sure these flies wouldn't even come close again ever! ;-) Warm greetings form Holland!

in my experience, clear glass works better for propagation than coloured glass. For some reason the roots won't grow unless the stem gets the right amount, or kind of light. Also, my greenest and most vibrant basil last year was grown hydroponically, or at least using hydropinic liquid fertiliser with an NPK of roughly 4-0.5-3 (though I think it would be even better if the proportion of potassium were even lower still...) having lots of nitrogen keeps them from flowering or becoming too "woody", by then it also tastes bad.

My attempt to pot store lettuce and celery had this effect: the new shoots cannabalized the existing scrap but did not root. Lettuce in dirt thus died and I just "saved" (?) the celery and am trying to root it in water and some Aerogarden secret sauce to kill the mush around it (it's anti-fungal - not self-proclaimed but acts that way, trust me). But the basic growth is beautiful. I should have rooted it in water from the start. Did not. Onions don't care. But these did. Should have washed off the chemical inhibitors too. Will see.

Can or should I water with plant food? The liquid stuff from a bottle that you add to the watering can. I am worried that it's toxic.

Only when there is roots.

In UK there's a plant food called phostrogen, it's not toxic meant for edible crops, a bag will last a very long time, only need tiny bit of it mixed with water

Can you do it year-round or is it supposed to be done at a specific time of year? I thought basil is just an annual plant.

If you’ve got the light you can do it all year

Do you need to add fertilizer to the water like seaweed fertilizer

Once they get roots

I just tried this with 4 stems in a glass of water on a south facing window, and after 2 days all 4 stems have wilted. Any suggestions for why this would happen? Thanks!
@SheffieldMadePlants7 ай бұрын
Could be the health of the stems to begin with or maybe it was too much hot sun
@RyanCoatta7 ай бұрын
@@SheffieldMadePlants I think it was probably too much sun. I will try again and place them set back from the window.

You can try repotting it and spacing it out more

how do you avoid stem / root rot? mine usually rots when i put the cuttings in water
@SheffieldMadePlants8 ай бұрын
Could be lack of light. So they are rotting before they can develop roots
