I realized today that it smelled like Stinging nettle, and not holy basil. It also looked weird and not like it should, so I looked it up...

I've been growing and caring for a regular stinging nettle this entire time, thinking it's holy basil. The seed probably came with the plant soil I bought. 😭

Well, back to step one I guess...

Replanted K26-52 today! I used an old milk carton as a pot to recycle!

It's easy to use old cartons as your pots, which you get for free and you save on the environment! 🌿
