Growing Your Basil Siam Queen Thai

Sow your Basil Siam Queen Thai seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost or directly outdoors once the soil has warmed and all danger of frost has passed.

Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Sow seeds shallowly, about 1/4 inch deep, and gently cover. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination occurs, typically within 7-14 days. When transplanting seedlings or thinning direct-sown plants, space them about 12-18 inches apart to allow for their full growth and impressive flower development.

Water regularly, especially during warm weather, and harvest leaves as needed, which can encourage more of those beautiful flower-heads to emerge.
