I just finished planting 18 basil plants. I hope they grow up to be good pesto! I find that basil is prone to root rot in our damp spring weather. Often, later in the season, I need to fill in a few holes where I've lost plants. But, for now, the young plants look good.
Ocimum basilicum
Good luck with your basil. I also transplanted mine recently and can't wait for loads to make pesto-grew genovese, fino verde, penang lemon and thai.
ReplyDeleteWow. Sounds good. I'll watch and see if you post recipes. Its always fun to try new things.
ReplyDeleteI recommend experimenting with parsley pesto... blend a cup of it up with a tomato, a bit of olive oil, salt, and a clove of garlic
