Here's what you need to prepare:

Your supermarket basil giving you that sad look that’ll make you finish this guide in less than 30 minutes.

2–3 pots depending on the size of the plant.

Some garden soil and a little spade.

Unlike other herbs, basil has a high demand for nutrients. He prefers nutritious and humid soil that is slightly damp and porous. A pH level from 6,5 to 7,5 is ideal.

Some pebble stones (alternatively clay fragments).
