How to Completely Regrow Basil in 2 Weeks with Only 1 Watering

Step 1: Start by filling the Soil Cup with potting soil.

 


Step 2: Mix half a cap full of Osmocote fertilizer into the soil.

 


Step 3: Get a grocery store basil plant. Divide its root ball into 3 or 4 sections, each with stems and roots.

 


Step 4: Plant the basil sections. Optionally, add mycorrhizal fungi under roots for growth boost.

 


Step 5: If you are using your own bucket, drill a small drainage hole 1 inch above the handle. Note: Our buckets come pre-drilled for your convenience.

 


Step 6: Now, fill your 5-Gallon Bucket with water up to the level of the drainage hole.

 


Step 7: Position the Soil Cup on top of the water-filled Bucket.

 


Step 8: Water your newly planted basil from the top until water overflows from the drainage hole.
