sprouted in 2 days
I bought the seeds to plant in my aerogarden. I planted them on Monday and within 2 days they has started to sprout. It has been 6 day and the plants are getting ready to have their first set of true leaves. I purchased my Aerogarden the first year they came out and have planted Basil in it every fall. This is the fastest the plants have ever sprouted. The basil has not gotten big enough to taste the quality yet. I will up date my review when I know how strong the Basil is. My first impression is this is the highest quality of seed I could find on Amazon.Update- today is 2 weeks since I planted the basil. I have included a photo. I tasted the basil for the first time today and am so happy. I has a strong and very pleasant flavor. I will be harvesting some leaves for the first time this weekend to make pizza. I highly recommend these seeds.

A Different Type Of Basil
The seeds sprouted within the week and since then have been growing slowly but steadily. The leaves are smaller than typical store bought Basil and overall the plants are not growing as large as previous standard Basil I've grown in the past. Not fully sure if this is an expected characteristic of this version or if the growing conditions are the cause. It's also a thicker leaf than standard store bought version. Flavor is good and strong so overall a nice change of pace to have tried.

Best seed
This is the best basil I’ve ever bought! It germinated so fast and grow healthy with large leaves. The best of all, it tastes delicious. I will buy basil seeds only from this seller! They are the beat!

It just seemed like low germination
I also had some germination issues. Part of it could be temperature, but some germinated, so I kind of doubt it. It just seemed like low germination, especially for basil, and the seeds that did germinate are not doing too well. My other herb seedlings are doing great under similar conditions (but using seeds from other sources), so I tend to blame the seed for the basil. I'm starting over with seed from a different source.

The best Basil seeds
These seed are very good. You can eat them right off the plant. They are that good. Only issue is there were some other seeds that are not basil. They grow but not sure what they are. Bean? Overall, beautiful basil.
