One fine morning, I saw my neighbor talking to a plant. Yep, talking. Curious me peeked over and saw this green beauty with tiny purple flowers. “It’s Tulsi,” she said. “Very special!” And that’s how my Tulsi journey began.
🌱 How I Planted My Tulsi
Step 1: Find Seeds
I got tiny black Tulsi seeds (they look like baby watermelon seeds). I held them like treasure in my hand—because hey, they are plant babies!
Step 2: Get Some Dirt
I grabbed a pot. You can also use an old bucket, cup, or anything that holds soil and your dreams. Filled it with garden soil, added a bit of compost (read: cow poop 💩 magic), and gave it a shake and tap like a chef.
Step 3: Sow and Grow
I sprinkled the seeds gently, like I was seasoning noodles. Covered them with a thin layer of soil (not a mud blanket!), and watered lightly like I was waking a sleepyhead. Then came the tough part… waiting.
One week later: Tiny green leaves popped up like sleepy kids on Monday morning. I screamed with joy (my neighbor thought I saw a ghost).
🌞 Taking Care of My Green Buddy
Tulsi is low-maintenance, just like my hairstyle. Here's how I took care of it:
Sunlight: Loves it! I kept it in a sunny spot. Think of it as a plant sunbathing.
Water: Once a day is enough. Don’t drown it, we’re growing a plant, not rice!
Talking to it: Optional, but hey, plants are great listeners.
🌟 Tulsi’s Superpowers
Now the fun part—what can Tulsi do? It's not just a pretty leaf, it's like a green superhero!
❤️ Final Thoughts
Planting Tulsi was one of the best things I ever did (after learning how to make Maggi). It’s easy, fun, and super useful. You don’t need to be a gardening pro. If I can grow a plant without accidentally sitting on it, so can you.
So go ahead—plant your Tulsi. Treat it like a leafy friend, and it’ll give you fresh air, health, and a whole lot of leafy love.
