I hope all you clever gardeners out there dont mind me asking such a simple question on the newly formed Gardeners Forum, but my basil plant which grows in a pot outside has recently got brown spots all over it. I live in Auckland and it has been raining a lot lately and very heavily. Could the spots just be rain damage ? Is the basil still safe to use ?
Many thanks
Steph

That happened to my basil (I live in Auckland as well) - I assumed it was because the temps are getting lower (a couple of weeks ago they were anyway) - in fact too low for basil - so I harvested the lot - and will wait for spring before I try to plant more....
