I learned my lesson not to plant anything in pots with no draining holes -sadly- it died quickly from basil shoot blight. Better not plant basil in pots with poor drainage.kAyLahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17108333678275680270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2059740812156620936.post-54815957561820801032008-11-02T19:06:00.000-05:002008-11-02T19:06:00.000-05:00...and just as I had written that last comment, I ......and just as I had written that last comment, I saw you had a post on Basil!

When the basil plants grows and hardens out or kind of dries out, becoming brown in color instead of green, we pick parts of it and rub it in our hands, it produces a really nice smell.Ashraf Al Shafakihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13813620764143070326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2059740812156620936.post-29757577855669902452008-05-27T21:06:00.000-04:002008-05-27T21:06:00.000-04:00Thank you everyone!!

I like to breathe it in after working outside in the steamy heat (which has already started here in Pensacola!). One caution, though. My desk reference advises epileptics to avoid using it.walk2writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501812375142037251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2059740812156620936.post-1236845560046650362008-05-23T14:12:00.000-04:002008-05-23T14:12:00.000-04:00Congratulations!
