Seedlings: If you want a head start, purchase young basil plants from a nursery or garden center and transplant them into your own pots or garden beds.
Soil and Container Requirements
Basil prefers well-draining, nutrient-rich soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH (6.0 to 7.5).
If growing in pots, use high-quality potting mix.
Ensure containers have drainage holes to avoid waterlogging.
Choose pots that are at least 6–8 inches deep to support healthy root growth.
Ideal Light and Temperature
Basil loves sunlight. It requires at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily to grow vigorously.
Place pots or garden beds in a sunny spot, such as a south-facing window or balcony.
If natural light is limited, supplement with a grow light.
Basil grows best in temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C).
Protect plants from cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
