The Chinese have been using marijuana since 10,000 BC

Even cave men used it........ they left drawings about it.

there are several varieties of basil to grow that add a different flavor to foods ie: pinapple basil, lemon basil, lime basil, purple basil google search them.

things are going good. i had to leave them home alone for 2 days. was worried about the peat pods drying out but they were fine in the little greenhouse.

the basil is all sprouted. chives, oregano, thyme and cilantro are all starting to sprout. still waiting on both parsleys and rosemary. here are a few pics of em

Looking good. One thing I have learned about Rosemary is that it likes rather dry roots and it performs better when its not in direct sunlight. Also, I can't remember if you eventually plan on transplanting outside but lavender, sage, and Rosemary all assist each other with nutrients and rooting if planted outdoors in the ground or in one container if you ever plan on getting sage or lavender (smells great by the way). Lemon Balm is another good herb. It can relieve naesea and menstrual cramps. Good luck.

thanks for the info. im thinkin about planting outdoors, probably in 8 inch pots. the soil in my area is mostly just red mud. 8 inch will do for these?

i have some pods with multiple seeds started as well. should i split these sprouts up or will the be fine with 2 or 3 in 8"?

Which sprouts are you talking about splitting? I wouldn't have more than one Rosemary and one basil plant in a single pot. If given enough light, they will grow to a decent size in one season. If you planned on having them for multiple seasons you would probably never be able to transplant them out of a pot if their roots are graphed together. So planting one per pot or killing off the weaker sprouts later on would probably be a good idea, at least for those two plants.

the only ones i have goin solo are the cilantro, oregano, and italian parsley. the others are mostly singles but some have 2 and i even started 3 of the chives together. and i had 3 rosemary in one too. i guess ill thin them out or split the peat pod when i transplant. im headed to town now to get some more pots for transplanting. are there any i could or should leave with 2 per pot. and ill be growing all i can multiple seasons. maybe even try to take em all into multiple seasons by bringing them inside and keep em alive.

thanks

Rosemary and basil are the only two herbs that I am familiar with enough to give qualified advice on, sorry. Maybe try wikipedia. I do know that the density of the root mass of a given plant will closely correspond to the density of the above ground foliage. Any thin, tall, lanky herb will do better with a roommate (pot/ container mate) than a thicker, densers one. Hope that helps a little.

I've grown enough Basil to give some advice on it. I grew some inside & outside, in different sized containers, under 24 hours light, & ran several other experiments with growing Basil. I even grew three 7/8 inch tall Basil plants in a container the size of a of a coffee cup. They were healthy as well. What I can tell you is this...Basil does not like temps below 50F at all, it does enjoy direct light all day(especially real sun), grows very fast, picking the leaves often will encourage growth(bushier), spider mites love basil...they will destroy it quickly left unchecked. The roots don't need much space although the more they have the better, water like you would a tomato or cannabis plant...allow the soil to dry between waterings.
