To successfully grow basil sprouts at home, you will need to plant basil seeds in a small pot with well-draining soil, place the pot in a sunny location, water the soil regularly but avoid overwatering, and ensure the temperature is around 70-75F. Harvest the basil sprouts when they are about 6 inches tall by cutting the stems just above a pair of leaves.
Basil and cilantro are ideal to plant together because they both love full sun and plenty of moisture. If you're planting them together in a pot and planning to make pesto with your basil, though, you may want to grow the basil by itself since you'll need a lot of it.
