Hi! As you can see on the picture, my purple ruffle basil get some greenish kind of stains on the purple leaves, any idea of the cause ? (It was not the case a few weeks ago)

Missed this earlier, sorry. It is something that happens occasionally, heat or too much light can also increase the tendency, but should be fine.
So many roads to take, choices to make, and laughs to share!

Ok thanks for the info! I'll move them to a bit of shade just to see if it changes a bit or not.

My purple basils always get some green in the leaves as the summer wears on.
