The Seed Packet - Basil is a small paper packet of basil seed. It holds five Basil Seeds ready for a herb bed.
Basil suits a farmer who wants fresh herbs in spring. It is sown from March to May. The packet also teaches when basil grows best, so it is worth reading before it is opened. It weighs almost nothing.
The packet is found mostly in florists, greenhouses and sun rooms. It can also be made again by filling an empty basil packet with seed. The Farmer is the best occupation for gardening. It starts with the most Agriculture skill.
Using
Reading the packet teaches the basil growing season. It is a very quick read. Once read, the right months for basil are known to the farmer.
Opening the packet gives five Basil Seeds and an Empty Seed Packet - Basil. The seeds go into a garden plot. Each plant grows for about twenty days of game time. At harvest it gives four to six basil.
Basil is sown in March, April and May. March is the best month to plant. The crop does badly from August through January, so late sowing is a poor choice.
The Put 5 Seeds in Packet recipe refills an empty packet with five seeds. That keeps loose seed tidy and easy to store.
