PSA: My basil went from sad to happy in about 10 days after I moved it.
It was getting maybe 3 hours of direct sun and stayed small, but after shifting it to a spot that gets a solid 6, it's doubled in size. Has anyone else had a plant totally turn around just from a simple light change?

That's awesome it perked up, but just a heads up, basil can actually handle way more than 6 hours. Mine gets a full 8 hours of direct afternoon sun and it goes crazy. The leaves get way bigger and the flavor is stronger too.

Wait, afternoon sun doesn't burn it?
