basil leaves turning black and falling off


Question
I just brought a basil plant inside and the leaves are turning black and falling off.  How come.  Thanks  KO

Answer
KO:
You have just given your basil a death sentence. It hates indoor growing unless it has 16 hours of sunlight and above 70 degrees. Given a southern exposure, like in front of a sliding glass door. Water it sparingly and feed no fertilizer. Good luck.!
