I've decided to let my cinnamon basil go to seed. I figure it will be much easier to transport the seeds than the plants. And I already have a bunch of plants that will need transport. So two less will be a good thing. Anyone know about how long it will take them to go to seed?

How big is your plant Tammy?
I don't know about inside conditions but I know outside, if you don't keep up with the pinching, it certainly doesn't take long!

It takes awhile from first bud to seeds but I've never actually kept track. I'm thinking a month to 6 weeks. But that's just a guess. And I usually harvest for a week or so.
