I use our Brita for all potables and houseplant water. All of the basil I buy at the store goes bad rapidly. I haven’t been to the FM this year to get the good stuff. I have had success with growing it in containers on the deck, but that was in past. I hope to do that next year.

I often transplant pots of basil from the grocery store, that were greenhouse basil, into the garden in May, once there’s no frost at night.
I’ve not had to transition it gradually. It usually does better outside.
It often lasts for 2 or 3 months before it goes to flower, depending on the weather.
I don’t have luck keeping basil healthy indoors for more than a week or so There isn’t enough direct light.
