Thanks for your help!... I'm buying that book, it sounds really good. It killed me to cut my basil because I like it being tall. But I started looking at pictures of basil and it's a bushy plant, not a tall skinny plant. So, I just held my breath and did it lol :)

One more question then I'll leave you alone about this silly basil plant :)

That one step sticking out that's almost bare... the one I'm pointing to :) ..... should I cut it off or leave it alone? Did I do ok? It looks so stubby now! Thank you again! I've been obsessed with herbs all day. Haven't gotten anything else done :)
