Lightly press seeds into the soil surface; do not cover deeply, as they need light to germinate. Keep the growing medium consistently moist and warm. Once seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves, transplant them to a sunny location with well-drained soil, spacing them 12-18 inches apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering. Pinch back the growing tips to encourage bushier growth and harvest leaves as needed. Holy basil benefits from occasional feeding with a balanced organic fertilizer. Protect plants from cold temperatures; in cooler climates, grow them in containers that can be moved indoors before frost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e10000 Red Leaf Holy Basil seeds (Non-GMO).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50377096167521,"sku":"Seeds - red leaf holy basil-55","price":35.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/0796\/7073\/files\/ganang20261106T17071.jpg?v=1794554792","url":"https:\/\/8storeseedsejahtera.store\/products\/10000-red-leaf-holy-basil-seeds-non-gmo-tulsi-seeds-for-planting","provider":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
