I dunno. I think you need to have the right plant karma. I was given
a basil plant from Trader Joe's last year that I kept going until I
went on vacation and then it died at the plant sitter's. I bought a
pot of parsley a few weeks ago and it started getting leggy & brown
immediately - under the same light and heat conditions the basil did
well in (my kitchen window). So, I'm as clueless as you are. My
advice is to get a violet.
