    Product Details

    Italian Basil is a fragrant, fast-growing herb with large, glossy leaves and a sweet, peppery flavour, a staple in Italian cooking and surprisingly easy to grow at home.

    • Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties
    • Perfect for pesto, pasta, fresh salads, and more
    • Thrives in India's warm weather, grows beautifully in pots, windowsills, and balconies
    Sowing

    Sow the seeds 0.5–1 cm deep in a seedling tray. We recommend using Ugaoo's Organic Veggie Mix to give them the best start.

    The best time to sow is from October to November, just as winter begins.

    Keep the tray indoors in a bright spot with indirect light, and maintain good humidity until the seedlings emerge.

    Germination
    • Seeds sprout in 10–12 days.
    • Keep soil moist during this period.
    • Once sprouts appear, move to a bright spot with direct sun.
    Growing
    • Once the seeds sprout, move them to a spot that gets plenty of direct sunlight.
    • Water gently every day using a spray bottle, and keep the soil evenly moist with good drainage.
    • We recommend using a pot with drainage holes to prevent excess water from collecting.
    • Leave 8–10 cm between plants and 25–30 cm between rows so they have enough room to grow.
    • Feed your spinach with Ugaoo's Cow Manure every 25 days. To help protect it from common pests, we also recommend using Ugaoo's Neem Cake and Neem Oil Spray regularly.
    Aftercare & Post-Harvest
    • Harvest the leaves regularly, as older leaves can become bitter.
    • If you see a flower stalk growing from the centre, harvest the whole plant straight away.
    • As the weather warms up from February onwards, spinach naturally starts flowering.
    • Once this happens, it's time to remove the plant and sow fresh seeds in the next cool season.
    Harvesting
    • You can start harvesting baby leaves in just 30–40 days.
    • Snip the outer leaves close to the base and let the centre continue growing.
    • Harvest regularly to encourage fresh, continuous growth.
    • Spinach can be harvested for up to two growing cycles before the leaves begin to turn bitter.

    Customers praised these seeds for excellent germination rates, with most reporting 70-100% sprouting in 3-5 days. Shoppers loved the "fast growth" and "big leaves" that grew well. However, one customer reported seeds didn't sprout at all, and another noted the taste was more Thai than Italian. Overall, highly recommended for beginners.

    Satisfied.

    Very satisfied with the product. I came back to my home (semi-arid Rajasthan) and wanted to grow a few herbs to cook some Italian food and thus ordered this. I don't know shit about gardening/growing tbh and wasn't sure if it's going to work out, but it did. Things are going great (for now). I won't lie I was skeptical at first (ordering from here) but ugaoo rocks! The price is good and delivery time, minimal.

    Best seeds to grow in 3-4 days

    I was a beginner. I wanted to learn. And being a beginner you want saplings to come asap to check whether you did everything right or not. And these seeds were best. They started growing within 3-4days. I super happy and love the seeds. Must buy product. I strongly recommend ugaao for everything plant related things.

    High quality seeds.

    This was my first time to order seeds from Ugaoo and turned out to be very pleasing experience. These Italian Basil seeds are very good quality seeds packed in a very state of the art packet. Seeds were sprouted as quickly as I was expected. I highly recommend Ugaoo.com to buy any gardening stuffs. They give high quality materials.
