HOW TO GROW TULSI BASIL
Sow seeds directly in late spring when nights are above 65˚F. Surface sow, pressing in firmly, keep moist but not wet. Start indoors 4-6 before warm evenings. Do not pinch buds to encourage further branching, this reduces plant vigor. Dry herb bunches by hanging from ceiling or lay on screens in a dark, dry, ventilated location. Harvest for drying at peak maturity when flowers are just beginning to appear, leaves contain the most essential oils at that time. Or, after that oils are transferred to flowers, strip the dried flower columns in fall for the best tea and to save seeds. Less frost sensitive than Ocimum basilicum. Can be ripened out doors in cool climates such as Skibbereen Co. Cork, Ireland. Soil pH 6.1-8.5. Hardiness zones 7-11. Annual.

##Kapoor Tulsi Basil has shiny green leaves on a green stem that continue to produce all season long until frost. As it flowers, clip back the flowers, and the plant will send out new leaves and flowers. The leaves and flowers can be used as a beautiful soothing medicinal tea. Tulsi has been used for 3,000 years in ayurvedic medicine, “the knowledge for long life”. Tulsi calms the nerves, while nourishing the heart. It’s also used for colds, headaches, stomach disorders, inflammation, arthritis, heart disease, stress, cancer and antibacterial skin preparations. It’s an excellent herbal tea on its own or blended with other herbs. Also known as Holy Basil and Ocimum sanctum.

Tulsi basil originated in India as an aromatic perennial shrub, medicinal or culinary herb tea and oils. The aroma is spicy and complex, similar to clove. Four common varieties: Rama Tulsi is hardy, easy to grow and our favorite for a soothing tea. Vana Tulsi has slightly fuzzy leaves, is a larger plant and is closer to the wild form. Tulsi Kapoor has shiny green leaves, best for culinary uses, smaller plant. Tulsi Krishna has purple leaves, slightly more difficult to germinate.##Restoration Seeds##Certified Organic by OR Dept. of Ag.##Seed grower since 2009##//cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0129/8922/files/DSC01082_210x165.jpg?1410551201354068541##Restoration Seeds is a farm-based seed company committed to selling seeds growers can save.

Smell
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
The fact that there are not more comments on the smell of these pillows has me worried about some of yall. Listen, I LOVE the weight, and the firmness, it’s perfect for that. However, these pillows are RANK. They have a very strong mildew-ish smell that lingers. I took the outer cover off and washed it and let the pillow air out for a few days, the smell is still very strong when you press your face against it, which one does because it is in fact designed for that purpose. It smells so bad. It’s nauseating. I can smell it through two pillowcases and blanket that I threw on top of them hoping an extra layer would trap the smell. I’ll bake them in the Texas sun tomorrow and hope that helps, because otherwise these are the perfect pillows for someone who wants to feel like they are hugging a torso but can’t stand the sound/feel of someone else breathing. I don’t know…4 stars, if the smell goes away I’ll come back.
Update: many many days later. Either they don’t really smell anymore or I got use to it. They’ve held their firmness and shape well. I like them.

Actually Cooling Pillow
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This is a really nice pillow, I was worried it would be too soft or too firm but it's just right and it's actually cooling, it feels cool every time I touch it. I've noticed an improvement in sleep since using it. Would recommend!

Repurchased in King Size – Still Love These Cooling Pillows
Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling), Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
After using the queen-size version of these pillows for over a year, we purchased the king-size set when we upgraded to a king mattress. Both my husband and I really like them.
The cooling feature works well, and we like that each side feels different—when I run cold, I use the softer bamboo side, while my husband prefers the cooler side since he tends to sleep hot. They fit well in our king-size pillowcases and feel supportive in all sleeping positions, whether I’m on my stomach, side, or back.
I also appreciate that you can remove some of the filling to adjust the firmness. The covers are washable, which makes them easy to maintain. Overall, we’re very happy with this repurchase and the long-lasting comfort.

Not great at cooling
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
Each pillow cover has 2 sides, one marked for cooling, and the other a different fabric. The cooling side is about the same effectiveness as having a silk or satin pillow cover. It's only cool when you first touch it. The cooling side doesn't seem to absorb or wick moisture, so if you are sweaty - it keeps the moisture in place. You'll definitely want a regular pillow case over the pillow cover. In fact, if you suffer from night sweats, the non-cooling side is actually more comfortable. The pillow fill is ample, and simple to squish around for more support for your neck, etc. Think bean bag. But it will retain your impression after use. I find I need to do as I did when I had down pillows - give it a few good shakes in the morning when I make the bed to get it evened out for the coming night. In all, it is a well-made and comfortable pillow to sleep on, but it does not excel in cooling.

excellent pillows i bought two sets!!
Size: Firm Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
I ordered these for my son who has neck issues and has gone through so many pillows trying to find one that he liked. They’re heavy, so i was worried that they might be “too” heavy to be able to sleep on comfortably, so I ordered a second set, one firmer than the other (just in case) and gave him a set for Xmas and he loved the first set so much without even trying the less firm ones.He also needs the cooling factor and these offered that, too. They are filled with pieces of memory foam (tons of it) and each pillow can be modified by removing some of the foam. The covers are beautiful, high quality fabric with a zipper so ts easy to remove or replace the foam pieces. The size is perfect and they keep their shape. I kept the second set i ordered rather than returning them and i love the pillows. I actually modified two by removing some of the foam pieces. I kept the foam pieces in a zippered pillow protector and i can always adjust mine when or if i need to.
1000% love these.
