My dickhead cat knocked this sweet basil plant over. Can I try to tape it and brace or is she cooked?

I water once she is dry and is front of the window

  1. My best bet would be cutting it and starting over again 😅

  2. Taping won’t work. Try propagating (cut the brown part off and consult Google on basil propagating for the best result, I’m not an expert), she still has a chance

  3. Cut and propagate. Basil is very easy to propagate

    take the top off and propagate it in water or soil. i’ve done it before, and they root quite easily.

  5. Cut and prop. But also just eat it. You want to be pinching off the top leaves so that the plant branches off and becomes bushier. The top leaves are the oldest and you risk the plant going to seed which will change the taste profile of the leaves.
