I have 3 basil plants and one mint plant on my window sill. They needed to be moved to larger pots so I went to my parents house, dug up some dirt from their back yard, filled 3 planters and put the dirt next to my vibrant plants, ready to transfer once I had some time. Well I never had the time and 2 days later there were ants moving between the new dirt and my herbs. I immediately got rid of the backyard dirt, and had to throw away one of the basil plants. The ants are gone but now the leaves on my herbs have these tiny black specks on them, the plants are wilting and the base of the stems have brown spots. Does anyone know what this is and how I can rectify the situation? Any help is appreciated.
