Tulsi Basil is one of the most culturally important herbs for medicinal and spiritual uses in South Asia. Regular consumption of tulsi not only helps protect and detoxify the body's cells and organs, it can also help reduce toxic stress by relaxing and calming the mind and offering many other psychological benefits.
Plants grow to a height of 20” at maturity with small, green leaves. Leaves can be used fresh or dried for tea.
Plants can perennialize outdoors in warmer climates. If planting indoors, keep plant near a window with direct sunlight and reduce watering in the Winter.
Numerous studies show that tulsi has anti-diabetic, anti-bacterial, anti-carcinogenic, anti-fertility, anti-ulcer and many other activities. The compounds present in this herb help the body and mind cope with a wide range of chemical, physical, infectious and emotional stresses and restore physiological and psychological function.
Seeds can be tricky to start since they are extremely tiny and require light to germinate. We use seed starting soil in a wide pot (or a takeout container with holes at the bottom), and sprinkle the seeds over the top. Lighly sprinkle a little seed starting soil over the seeds, taking care to not bury to seeds. Be careful while watering, as seeds can easily get buried from the force of the water. Cover the pot with saran wrap and place in a sunny window or greenhouse. Keep soil moist until first signs of germination. Once plants are 1/2” tall, you can seperate them into individual containers to continue growing.
At least 200 seeds per Packet.
