#60: Regrow Thai Basil From Cutting

  1. 🌱 Thai Basil
Thai Basil Experiment Rooting Hormones

I got some Thai Basil cuttings from my mom. Each Cutting should be 4 to 6 inches long. Remove the leaves at the bottom 2 inches. Dip the bottom 1 inch in water.

I experiment with rooting powder to see if it makes a difference.
