There is nothing more beautiful, for cooking lovers, than going out onto the balcony<\/strong>  , picking a  basil <\/strong>leaf <\/strong> from your plant and using it to prepare dishes and dishes!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A little dream that even those without a green thumb can realize! The  basil<\/strong> plant  is indeed an aromatic plant that everyone, following the right advice, can grow, perhaps alongside others, such as thyme, rosemary and mint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how to get  basil<\/strong>  on the balcony full of  fragrant leaves<\/strong>  , without letting it dry out at the first distraction? Let’s find out together, following these simple  tips<\/strong>  .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

water in the morning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Watering<\/strong>  a basil plant seems like a simple task, but it is perhaps the one that requires more attention! To water basil, we must first  avoid overdoing it<\/strong>  or we will make its roots suffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We limit ourselves to  wetting<\/strong>  the  soil<\/strong>  of the plant to keep it always  moist<\/strong>  , but  without compacting it<\/strong>  with too much water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, especially in the  <\/strong>spring<\/strong>  and summer  months  , it is preferable to water <\/strong>in the morning<\/strong>  , when temperatures are not yet too high and the plant has plenty of time to absorb the water without it evaporating.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warning<\/strong>  : If your seedling appears to be in pain and you are unable to recover, seek professional advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give him some ground coffee<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Feeding  basil<\/strong>  is essential to always have  new<\/strong>  and  fragrant<\/strong> leaves  .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can use a  fertilizer<\/strong>  purchased at the nursery or florist. A natural and homemade solution is to use   coffee  grounds . Take <\/strong>about 3 of them<\/strong>  ,  crumble them<\/strong>  and  spread them<\/strong>  on the ground at the base of the plant: over time, these will release  nitrogen<\/strong>  , a substance that stimulates the growth of the plant.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, you can use  wood ash<\/strong>  , also spreading it directly on the  soil<\/strong>  at the base of the plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read<\/strong>  about other uses for coffee grounds for your plants here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spray water on the leaves.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To keep the  leaves<\/strong>  always  fragrant<\/strong>  , in the spring and summer months, spray a little  fresh water<\/strong>  on the  foliage<\/strong>  of your  basil<\/strong>  .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This way, the leaves will stay fresh, they will dry more slowly, and you will be able to maintain the ideal humidity level for this plant to feel good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, we should not overdo it, limiting ourselves to performing this operation  once<\/strong>  or  twice<\/strong>  a week at most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A secret? Add a few drops of  neem oil<\/strong> to the water  : this natural substance will help you keep parasites and insects typical of summer away from the plant.  Discover here<\/strong>  all the secrets to scare away parasites using this substance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose the right place<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Understanding the best place to store basil is essential to making it grow lushly and having a quick and abundant  renewal<\/strong>  of  leaves.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the warm months, we can safely keep our basil plant on the  balcony<\/strong>  , so outside. Ideally, we should choose a place with  indirect sunlight<\/strong>  , i.e. away from the scorching rays of the sun that can cause the more delicate leaves to dry out and fall off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also,  avoid<\/strong>  placing the  basil<\/strong>  in a place where there is often  wind<\/strong>  :   too strong  gusts can <\/strong>break<\/strong>  the  twigs<\/strong>  or detach the leaves, weakening the plant.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here you will find other wellness secrets<\/strong>  of this plant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

remove the flowers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When the  basil<\/strong> plant  is doing well and is grown in the right way,  flowers<\/strong> may appear  . These are small, light-colored and pleasing to the eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, when the flowers appear on the plant, it uses a lot of its energy to keep them alive. As a result, the  basil<\/strong>  is  weaker<\/strong>  and the  leaves<\/strong>  also tend to  lose<\/strong>  their  smell<\/strong>  and  flavor<\/strong>  .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to do? Simple, you have to pluck or cut the flowers: you can do it with a  pair  of garden  scissors or, more quickly, with <\/strong>your hands<\/strong>  , being careful not to damage the other parts of the plant.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
