Basil seeds

With Basil Seeds, how many generation of seeds can I go before the seeds from that plant make a poor quality basil plant. The seeds I’m going to plant this year are from a second generation basil plant. If I use these 2nd generation seeds will I have good basil plant to make pesto and tomato sauce?

Thank you

There should be now lowering of quality as long as you harvest from healthy plants and store seed properly.
