I snagged a deal on grocery store basil. What sized pot(s) would be best to repot this into as 13 stems is a bit crowded for a 4" pot lol. Trying to keep this lil’ fella happy.

My plan is to overwinter the basil soon and then bring it back on the balcony in the spring.

    Well, a much larger pot for sure. One challenge on a balcony is plants dry out much faster than inside due to wind and direct sun. The extra soil will help hold enough water. Basil don’t like getting wilted. Perhaps avoid terracotta too since they dry out even faster due to being porous.
