Sow seed on the surface of damp peat free compost and just cover. Keep at 15-25C until after germination, which takes 14-21 days. Keep the compost slightly dry at all times, watering very lightly as seedlings emerge. Grow on in cooler conditions. When all risk of frost has passed, harden basil plants off before planting out in a sheltered sunny position.
Water moderately taking care to avoid splashing the leaves. Harvest basil leaves regularly when required to promote fresh new growth and pinch out any flowers that appear to prolong the harvest period.
