I got my growlight out of the cellar! I put the basil in it. I’m so proud of this basil. I bought it in a pot from the supermarket in May (?). I split it and have kept it alive ever since. Ihave managed to make us self-sufficient in basil for more than 6 months! Admittedly that is because we don’t use basil much, but it is the ONLY thing I have managed to make us self sufficient in (apart from tough outdoor herbs like sage which don’t count and we also don’t eat much).

I’m going to eat the ones at the front but try and 1 or 2 plants alive for as long as possible. Apparently they are going yellow because of too much water, too little, not enough nutrients or too cold. I’m going too cold… It says they like a night time temperature of no less than 10degrees. I’m guessing it’s not even that during the day in the kitchen
