    • Soil requirements: Purple basil prefers well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.5. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
    • Sunlight needs: Purple basil requires full sun to thrive, which means it needs at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
    • Watering requirements: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water the plants regularly, especially during dry periods, ensuring the soil remains evenly moist.
    • Planting season: The best time to plant purple basil seeds is in the spring after the last frost has passed. You can also start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date.
    • Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds at a depth of 1/4 inch and space them about 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
    • Germination time: Purple basil seeds typically germinate within 5-10 days under optimal conditions.
    • Maturity time: Purple basil plants usually reach maturity in about 60-90 days after planting.
    • Harvesting time: The best time to harvest purple basil is in the early morning when the essential oils are at their peak, ensuring the best flavor and aroma.
    • Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the stems just above a pair of leaves. Regular harvesting encourages bushier growth. Store harvested basil in a cool, dry place or refrigerate it to maintain freshness.
