Basil Seeds

Basil seeds grown from tiny seeds, produce vibrant, dark green leaves with an intense, sweet, and often lemony basil flavor, ready in 1-3 weeks; they're packed with vitamins (A, C, K) and minerals, adding a powerful nutritional and aromatic boost to dishes like salads and sandwiches. They are quick-growing, non-GMO seeds. • Taste: Strong, concentrated basil flavor with hints of mint, lemon, or spice depending on the variety. • Appearance: Tiny, black seeds, sometimes appearing shiny. • Nutrition: Excellent source of Vitamin K, A, C, Iron, Calcium, and antioxidants, offering more nutrients than mature basil. • Growing & Harvesting • Difficulty: Considered medium difficulty due to potential mold issues if overwatered or poorly ventilated. • No Soak: Do not soak seeds before planting; the gel layer provides moisture. • Blackout: Require 5-6 days of darkness to encourage upward growth, then plenty of light. • Harvest: Typically ready in 14-20 days when leaves are open and 1-3 inches tall.
