What can I do with basil grown from the Ankuria kit?

Basil is a versatile herb that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for making pesto, adding to salads, or using as a fresh garnish on pasta and pizza. Basil is also known for its aromatic properties and can be used in herbal teas and infusions. One of its lesser-known properties is its ability to be used as a pest repellent too!
How should I care for my Ankuria seedlings?

To ensure healthy growth, place your seedlings (both basil or cotton) in a sunny spot with plenty of light. Water them regularly, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. As they grow, you may need to transplant them into larger pots or into your garden. Our biodegradable peat pots make this process easy and eco-friendly. Detailed instructions on the transplantation process will be provided upon purchase of our kits.
How long do the seeds and soil last?

Our seeds are best used within a year for optimal germination rates. Store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their viability and extend their lifespan. We highly recommend use of the custom soil mix within a year to ensure it retains its nutrient-rich properties.
