The Grand Basil Experiment

I’ve been growing greens and herbs in an Aerogarden (turquoise, of course), and while they do great for a while, eventually all plants start to look a little sickly, and that was the case with the lettuces and basil I planted back in January.

After reading about successful transplants, I decided to rescue the 3 basil plants, and to try them out in different soil conditions.

Plant 1 will be inside in fresh soil

Plant 2 is outside in fresh soil

And plant 3 gets the maiden voyage in the greenhouse shelf.

We’ll see who is happiest.

Unsurprisingly, the two outside basils kicked the bucket. The one inside is going strong!
