Hey guys! I noticed an issue with my basil today. It’s been growing like a weed, but it looks rotten from the bottom. What happened? Can it be fixed?

Too much water maybe?
0개 좋아요That’s what I wondered, but I’ve been gone for a while and haven’t watered it besides the rain. Last two days I’ve been back we’ve been in a heat wave and I watered it yesterday morning and this morning I checked it and it was bone dry.
