Sowing

Timing: Plant cinnamon basil seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors after the last frost in your region.
Soil: Use well-draining soil enriched with compost and organic matter.
Planting: Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in the soil, and cover them lightly with soil. Space seeds or seedlings about 6-12 inches apart.
Sunlight: Cinnamon basil thrives in full sun. Ensure it receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.
Temperature: This basil variety prefers warm temperatures. Plant after the risk of frost has passed.
Thinning: Once seedlings sprout, thin them to ensure proper airflow and healthy growth.
Harvesting: Start harvesting when the plant is about 6-8 inches tall. Regularly prune the leaves to encourage bushy growth and continuous harvest.
