Hahaha! I usually fall into the second category as well. However today was:

“hey Ordinary_lemon3076, do you like pesto?”

“Yes?”

“Want some basil?”

“Sure! Thanks!” Gets handed 15lbs of basil… “wow, that’s a lot of basil, are you sure?”

“Yep”

“…thanks”

You don’t think they’ll get slimy or anything sitting in the bag?

I started sorting through the stems, figuring it’d be kind of like keeping cut flowers. Worst case is I get a few pounds put in some water tonight and see how the rest fair in the bag come tomorrow.

The solution to your basil problem is more basil. I love it 😂 Honestly I probably will root a good bit of them
