My sweet basil looks like it is about to bloom or go to see or something.
Should I let it go or pinch out the top or what?

Pinch the blooms off or the plant will bolt and die...

I have started growing basil this year and used it once for pesto.it
was great. will my plant continue to grow new leaves? i bought two
types of basil plants this year. once had the broad leaves, the other
tiny little leaves. not sure what that one is for. does anyone know the
difference?

I just grow plain sweet basil, so I'm not sure. :-)

But, basil is an annual. It will die and need to be re-planted yearly.
I've started keeping some in the greenhouse over the winter in pots.
It's good for a variety of recipes! Even just as is in sandwiches. :-d
