Holy basil, tulasi or tulsi as it's also commonly known, is an aromatic herb that's native to the Indian subcontinent and widespread throughout the Southeast Asian tropics.
Besides being a great addition to most meals, tulsi can also help in maintaining normal levels of the stress hormone – cortisol in the body.

Holy Basil likes to be cut! You can start trimming your plants approximately one month after planting. You may remove single leaves occasionally... But, for more thriving growth, pinching off the whole tip is recommended - it will grow two new shoots in a week.
Trimming your plant will also delay flowering and keeps the plant compact and low. Also, the pod will last longer.
Please note that Holy Basil is an annual plant. It does not last forever. If it has been over twelve weeks and the plant looks aged, it is time to replace the pod.
- Sprouts in: 1 - 2 weeks
- Lasts up to: 12 weeks
- Temperature range: 18 °C–30 °C
Due to switching to a more sustainable plant capsule system, you will receive your plant capsules without the plastic around the Smart Soil. This system works with the older Smart Herb Garden also, just don't throw away the plastic capsules!
