Can you tell me what is the name of the song you used in the beginning i've been looking for it everywhere!

I made it by myself. Just go to Inplix webpage if you'd like do the same

This guy is a moron of the highest order. A fuckwit.

Do what i did and upgrade to a much bigger pot. get a nice vase from b and q and use it sparingly and it'll grow huge. It just needs space to grow. Also basil is a dry Mediterranean herb, so whe you put it into its bigger pot, put lots of stones at the bottom (not bricks.. the dust literally compacts the soil. This will give good drainage. Then i have put some flat stones in the bottom of the vase to keep it a little over the water run off. Only water when it starts to droop and you will be laughing. Just from empirical knowledge, may be wrong, and there may be better ways of doing it.

Ps to anyone watching this video. Try mixing up chopped basil, strawberries, and ricotta cheese. Then drizzle it with honey. It's sounds so weird but it's such a delicious treat!

Awesome video this is super helpful! I just started my own herb garden so this is great!!

Never in a million years would I have guessed basil and dark chocolate go well together. Thanks for that!
-
Pouring filtered water onto soil? lol....
-
none of this is correct.
-
The only difference with using filter water is you change the PH value of the water (lowering it with a water filter). This could be the reason your plants do better, not because of any contaminates.

Basil and cauliflower!

i water my basil twice a day, before i go to sleep and after i wake up, its doing quite good now for one month.

Nothing quick about it! No need for the intro or commercial Fuck you!

My basil plants thieve and last as long as the weather is warm, months. Frost kills them. But, just like clock work the seedlings germinate from last summer's plants and I have a hundred of them. With such wet weather, though, the seedlings so far have not come up this year.
-
my basil pots die very quickly probably because the roots grow too fast. Nothing I can do about it...
-
Cool video, my advice is to keep an eye out for Microgreens on the shelf and regrow them on.
Thanks for the tips.
Happy Gardening
