Do not leave it outdoors. In winter there is frost at night, which the Tulsi plant cannot tolerate. Therefore, do not keep the Tulsi plant in an open place during winter. Keep the basil plant in a slightly shady location or indoors. Keep the plant in a location where it receives light sunlight in the morning. Keep it near the window to let in light and air. If the basil is kept outdoors, cover it with a thick cloth.
Avoid overwatering with fertilizer. Tulsi plant does not require much water or fertilizer in winter. The water does not dry out in winter, so the roots of the plant may rot due to excessive watering. Do not add any type of manure or fertilizer to the basil plant from December to January.
