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

Basil can be planted directly outdoors when the ground is warm, or started indoors in starter pots. 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:

For planting outdoors, plant seeds 1/4" deep, 2-3 seeds per inch. Firm the soil over the seeds. Thin plants to 4-8" apart for healthy, full plants. 

If starting indoors, plant seeds in starter pots 6 weeks prior to transplanting outdoors. Plant 1/4" deep and keep at 70°F 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.

Glass skin in a bottle
I read a review here saying this product was glass skin in a bottle before purchasing myself, and to be fair, I didn’t get it because of that particular effect, but the way my skin has changed since I started using it is just amazing. I’ve been using this for several months now along with the toner and moisturizer from the same line. This is hydrating, leaves a beautiful glow on the skin, wears great under makeup, and I’ve noticed more and more people commenting on how nice and healthy my skin looks since I started using it. I am currently going through a hormonal acne flare up, and this helps my skin feel calm and does not break me out at all.

Hydrating and NOT Sticky!!
As someone who has VERY dry and sensitive skin, I love this product. It gives me an extra layer of protection during the cold and windy days, so I don’t have to worry about my skin burning or peeling the next day. It’s pretty lightweight, and really only feels like you are putting on water almost. It gives your skin a subtle glow too which is nice, and has no scent (which is perfect for sensitivity). It works super well and makes your skin looks plump. The only reason I’m docking a star is because a few times I’ve used this I have had issues with my makeup (especially around my eyes) separating or peeling off. I’m not sure if this is happening because of the reaction with this product and my sunscreen or what, so take that with what you will!

Great Skin Product
I’m absolutely impressed with the ANUA Rice Ceramide 7 Hydrating Barrier Serum! This fragrance-free Korean skincare serum combines the power of rice, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide to brighten, hydrate, and strengthen my skin barrier. After using it regularly, my complexion looks noticeably more radiant and plump — that coveted glass skin glow is definitely real! The serum is lightweight and non-comedogenic, making it perfect for daily use without clogging pores or causing irritation. It complements my routine perfectly after cleansing with the Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil and using the 3-in-1 Jade Roller and Gua Sha Facial Kit to boost absorption and circulation. Together, these products have transformed my skin, reducing wrinkles, controlling pores, and keeping my skin hydrated and fresh. If you want a gentle yet effective serum that brightens and deeply hydrates while supporting your skin’s natural barrier, this is a must-have!

Great for dry skin
Looovvveee this stuff. At first it feels a little sticky but once your skin absorbs it, it feels so hydrated. I was worried about using this because i have dry and sensitive skin but if anything it made my skin calm down. I haven’t broken out and i’ve been using it for a while, makes my skin so glowy too.
