BASIL Dark Sweet Opal - OCIMUM basilicum

The best time to sow the seed is in Spring after the last frost.

• Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours before planting. This will help soften the seed coat and speed up the germination process.
• Plant the seeds in well-draining soil as they prefer moist soil but don’t like to be waterlogged.
• Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil and keep them moist but not wet.
• Position the pots in a warm and bright location, but not in direct sunlight.
• Once the seedlings emerge, you can transplant them into individual pots or your garden

Germination: 10 to 21 days.

*Please note:

• Please do not be too hasty to discard seeds that do not germinate; seeds will often lay dormant until the conditions are similar to their natural germination requirements.
• As with all seeds, they must have adequate water to germinate, keep them moist but not too wet.
• These growth notes are provided as guidance only and do not guarantee successful germination.
• The customer should do their due diligence that they are suited to their region.
