I don’t know if the basils will survive at all - three of them starting stacking flower-looking things on top - not like the leaves before - gotta admit I stripped those because they weren’t turning into leaves. Maybe that was bad. Well, not looking like they’ll make it.
Not much to say for the other basil plants - the leaves are getting dark spots, often the tips of the leaves - crushed eggshells and vegetable plant food in the soil, too.
The pepper plants and most of the tomato plants are healthy - lot of young tomato plants I’ll probably not try to save but there’s a few that might be worth it.
Hoping to bring inside 3-4 pepper plants and keep them going. Just dunno.
Well, I never know either, but I’m always willing to experiment - keeps it interesting, I think. LOL
I just snip those things off the basil plant. If you leave them, they will become flowers. I’m not sure what the spots are. I have harvested bunches and bunches of basil this summer from just 3 plants. I cut them back to about 6 inches and they just keep on going.
I’ll prune the one in a pot that I’m bringing in. One little packet of seeds, and only planted 3 of those and I have more basil than we can use in a year! I’m thinking I’ll give the kids some dried basil at Thanksgiving. I usually give them each a home grown lemon at Christmas.
