Overview

Basil is a warm-weather herb grown for its aromatic leaves. Often used as a garnish, it adds delicious flavors to dishes. Basil is a source of Vitamins A, C, and K.

Conditions

For soil, use a potting mix that’s tailored for vegetables and herbs. Basil thrives in warm temperatures, optimum being 70–85°F. For the best quality leaves, provide basil with full sun (6 or more hours of direct sunlight) and consistent moisture (don’t let the topsoil become dry to the touch).

Planting

Because basil prefers warm growing temperatures, it’s recommended to plant seeds outdoors when the ground is warm. Use our grow calendar tool to find specific dates for your region! Seeds germinate in 5–10 days. Basil can be planted outdoors directly or started indoors then transplanted:

Plant seed outdoors (recommended): Plant seeds 1/4" deep, 2-3 seeds per inch. Firm the soil over the seeds. Thinning is not necessary, but a final spacing of 4-8" apart produces healthy, full plants.

Transplant: Plant seeds indoors in starter pots 6 weeks prior to transplanting outdoors. Plant 1/4" deep and keep at 70°F (21°C) for best germination. Transplant outdoors when seedlings have 3-4 sets of leaves, spacing at 4-8" apart.

Care

After the seedlings have produced their first six leaves, prune (removing a part of a plant to encourage growth) or cut the stem above the second set. This encourages the plants to start branching, resulting in more leaves for harvest. Every time a branch has six to eight leaves, repeat pruning the branches back to their first set of leaves. After about 6 weeks, pinch off the center shoot to prevent early flowering. If flowers do grow, just cut them off. 

Pests and Disease

Basil is not as afflicted with pests and disease as other plants, but it is prone to nutrient deficiencies. There are three reasons why basil yellows: too much water, too little sun, and/or not enough nutrients. If basil leaves are yellowing, temporarily stop watering, move the plant to a sunnier location, and feed it with a balanced organic fertilizer.

Harvest

Begin light harvesting after plants have become established at 6-8” tall. Harvest in the early morning, when leaves are at their juiciest. A full harvest should be completed just before the plants start to flower. Leaves are easily bruised when picking, so handle carefully. The best method for storing basil is freezing in an airtight, resealable plastic bag. Freezing will prevent the plant from losing a good portion of its flavor.

Comfortable sleep aide
Size: Body 20"x54", Number of Items: 1
This pillow is not at thick as my old one, so it took some time for my body to adjust. After using it for a bit, I now am happy that I bought this one. The support is good. It’s no heavier than my old one, but it squishes down very well when packed (I purchased it on vacation and had to get it home). I sleep on my side, so putting the cooling side down keeps the leg under the pillow cooler than before. Overall, I like it quite a bit.

Smaller then expected
Size: Kids 13"x18", Number of Items: 1
Was my fault it was a lot smaller then I thought it’s pretty firm and soft at the same time the cooling is there but vanishes pretty quickly. Also the zipper was easy access that my toddler di end up just opening it and had thrown the memory foam/stuffing everywhere in a span of five minutes

Excellent Build Quality and Comfort – Great for Travel
Color: White, Size: Medium
The Nappler Small Shredded Memory Foam Pillow exceeded my expectations. The build quality is excellent, and it provides outstanding comfort for a good night’s rest. I’ve used it for several months on camping trips and during travel, and it has held up perfectly without losing shape or support. This pillow makes sleeping away from home much more comfortable, and the shredded memory foam design offers great adjustability. Overall, it’s a reliable and durable travel pillow. Pros: Excellent build quality Very comfortable for long nights Maintains shape and support even after months of use Perfect size for travel and camping Shredded memory foam allows easy adjustment Cons: Does not come with a waterproof pillowcase like some other brands If you’re looking for a high-quality travel pillow that lasts, this is a great choice!

Good quality, works well.
Color: White, Size: Medium
Love it!! It took several hours and a brief air dryer time to get it fully fluffed up. It is perfect for my twin size bed. I found it very comfortable to sleep on although I would prefer it a bit more dense. Side sleeping, it flattens too easily. it comes with a carry bag but I had no use for it. Nice quality and soft cover.

Highly recommend getting this product.
Color: White, Size: Medium
Great pillow that is worth the money. We travel often as a family and got these and it was worth it. The quality is good and it it firm enough to be comfortable. I got good support and also enjoyed the fact that it can be rolled up into the travel pouch and transported.
