Basil turning yellow

12 years ago

Hi everyone. About a month ago my good friend next door gave me some basil cuttings which I duly rooted in some water. There's about 8 of them and I put them in a good sized pot with fresh substrate. They were growing very nicely, getting largish so I decided to put them in the garden. Straight out of the pot, soil included.
Within a few days they've started to look odd, yellowy and the leaves look as though they're closing up. We've both got the same soil in our gardens and the same amount of shade(where they're planted). We live in Cyprus and the summer heat is just beginning to take off(it's 28c 82f today). Hers looks great but mine looks a bit sorry for itself! I'm wondering if I've shocked it by moving it? Also I'm watering it, like most things everyday now. Too much?
