Basil

Basil
A pack of basil seed costs a dollar and you'll soon have enough plants to share with your best basil-loving buddies. Start in one big pot, wet the dirt, cover with Saran Wrap and put in a sunny window. When the seedlings are a couple inches tall, transplant them to small individual pots, which seems to inspire them to grow like crazy. Transplant to bigger pots and you'll have basil nearly year-round. To keep them producing, pinch the flowers.

Hugh basil crop this year. Hung it in the garage to dry....a full wheel-barrel load. You talk of a basil smell.
