    Thanks, Connie. Learning to grow herbs and basil first plant. Unfortunately, my basil flowered, so I am curious to know how the propagated plants taste after they grow. Please let us know. I will trim off and save the plant. Right now I will get another plant and put it in my other garden spot for culinary.

    Wish I would’ve known this a few weeks back. My basil is flowering now 😐. What is flowering good for though? Can I just use the seeds to grow new basil?

      Yes. Let it dry on the plant and then collect the seeds.

    Where did you learn all your Horticultural skills? I’d never heard of armpits and how you are pruning these plants at such young plants. I remember watching you on your tomato video you were pruning those I had no idea you could replant the armpits. I know how to replant a lot of the offsets of flower plants but not the vegetable plants. Thank you for this. Cows will ear anything at least mine will so will the chickens lol

    Curious to know if the Basil you propagated from bolted plants tasted better…

      It actually died. And I forgot to water it. So let me actually go and cut some more and will start all over
