Saturdays are for chores! Got those done, went out for a walk in the morning. Did some gardening had to shred all the leaves on my Tulsi plant (Indian Basil). Grafted a new baby on the same stem will see how it goes. Turns out it was infected because of too much water. I allow the soil to drain well and water it twice a week but I don’t know how its leaves started turning black. Did some stretches in the evening. Day 157 was a success!

Yeah I read that too so I cut out all the infected leaves, now I’m waiting for it to revive.
Oh my! My basil is also affected by too much water! I thought I was supposed to give it water all the time (not directly on it) to keep the soil constantly fed, but apparently that’s not what I’m supposed to do 🤦♀️
I left it to rest a bit, and then when the soil is fully dry again, I’ll start watering it, but in extreme moderation 😅
That’s a good idea! I removed the leaves in the hopes that it grows again. The leaves had already wilted. I’ll wait for a bit before I water it again.
And don’t rip the leaves! Use scissors instead. Don’t leave the plant naked, either. What the plant needs to shed, it will do on its own, after getting back the nutrients.
I did remove some leaves, I wanna say, a week ago or more, and it looked like the branch had wilted on those spots, but yesterday I saw tiny new leaves, so just so you know, it will take time anyway.
