I've never grown anything that lived! This is amazing!

I'm not sure how to harvest some basil so that it will continue to grow and produce. Anyone want to assist, and maybe mark up one or more of my pics?

Feedback Needed πŸ†˜ What herbs do I plant first?

I was gifted an Aerogarden to start my hydroponics journey and my first attempt failed. My basil took over and only the savory survived. I am currently doing a 50/50 vinegar flush and was thinking about my next steps. I was thinking I may have to stagger when I put some of the herbs in during the next round which is planned to be ready in time for the holidays. I know basil should be planted at least a week late.

Here's the herbs I have, I am planning a two phase plant, one tomorrow and one next friday. I was wondering which should go in which group?

Basil, parsley, oregano, thyme, mint, cilantro, dill.... and I am thinking of digging out my seed bag and replacing the mint with chive. (I hate mint)

Which should go first and which should I plant on week two to reduce over crowding

Question ❔ What is a good on/off schedule for strawberry seedlings or verticals in general??

Doing 3 min on , 20 min off now that it’s cooler, and 45 min off in the evening. Ignore the seedlings, just giving them some sunshine . No lighting here.

I was running 3/12 as they were establishing

Thanks
