My basil is still growing rapidly. It is in great need of thinning. Hmm.
I guess I'll have to do lots of cooking with it this week!
And I'll still have plenty left to use for Thanksgiving cooking!
Minimal pest trouble so far, though I'm starting to notice brown spots on some of the lower leaves of the larger plants.
Occasionally I'll find a clear, watery, mucous-like mass around the central stem, underneath leaves. I have no idea what that might be, and my Google searches have revealed nothing. It doesn't look like the typical snail trail I'm used to seeing (or was used to seeing in California).
To be honest, I don't think I've seen any actual live snails since I moved here. I have been told there are snails in Houston, though.

I have the same mucus like substances on my basil plant, but I can not find any info on what it is or how to prevent it.
