{"product_id":"thai-basil","title":"Seed Collection: Thai Basil","description":"Thai Basil (Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora) is a spicy, anise-liquorice flavoured basil, which is also known as horapa in the Thai language. With their lovely purple stems and purple-veined leaves on a shiny, dark green background, these plants are not only grown for their culinary uses but also as ornamental specimens. Thai Basil is widely used in the cuisines of Southeast Asia, including Thai, Vietnamese, Lao and Cambodian cuisines. It is best when eaten raw—in fact, a plate of raw Thai Basil leaves is often served as an accompaniment to the Vietnamese dish called pho. The plant is said to have the ability to convey good fortune to its user while also protecting him or her from evil spirits. If a leaf is placed in one's pocket, it will cause money to enter one's pocket soon thereafter. \n\n\u003c!--StartFragment--\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNAME\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBasil\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThai\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQUANTITY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e120 seeds\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePLANT SIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight \u003c\/strong\u003e40 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth \u003c\/strong\u003e20 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONTAINER SIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight \u003c\/strong\u003e20 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth \u003c\/strong\u003e20 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOMPANION PLANT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTomatoes, peppers, oregano, parsley, garlic chives, alpine strawberries\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment--\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003c!--StartFragment--\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSOWING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndoor \u003c\/strong\u003eFeb-Mar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutdoor \u003c\/strong\u003eApr-June\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTIMING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination \u003c\/strong\u003e5-10 days\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvesting \u003c\/strong\u003e40-60 days\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPACING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen sowing \u003c\/strong\u003e1-3 cm; Depth 0,3 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen thinning \u003c\/strong\u003e3-5 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGROWING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSunligth \u003c\/strong\u003eFull sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil \u003c\/strong\u003eWell-drained, light and moist soil\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering \u003c\/strong\u003eRegular watering, not overdone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeeding \u003c\/strong\u003eLight feeder\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"infoProdotto\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCARING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpert tip \u003c\/strong\u003eTo promote a nice bushy plant with lots of scented leaves, prune this basil early and often by pinching off the upper set of leaves.
