October 11, 2012 Bounty Elite Basil garden started. 2 Thai basil, one lemon, one lime, one marseille. I will be adding two more Marseille when the pods arrive in the mail. If anything doesn't thrive, I'll pull it to make room for the stronger ones.  |

A little Lemon Basil friend poked its head up. A lime one is close behind.

The first grow dome came off the lemon basil. A Thai basil is close behind.

Most of the pods are showing life now. It isn't photo worthy yet though. I'll post a photo soon.

I wonder if it's the water I use. I'm using bottled spring water.

December 1, 2022 The basil is going crazy. It's doubling in size every two weeks. I just chopped it way back so the light can get to the bottom. Huge yield of herbs this time.  |

March 15th, 2023 The basil was blooming and dropping leaves below. Not enough light getting down low. It's super strong, so I chopped it way back. Light is getting down inside now. It'll come back even better than before.  animationresources.org/stuff/031523basil.jpg |

April 25, 2023 I let the basil go a bit too long. It's getting leggy. I trimmed it back and we'll see if it comes back.  |
