Don’t wait for your basil to flower to cut it back!

Here, I explain where on the plant and HOW to cut back your basil plants, prolonging harvest. This week, I’m sending a video tutorial — felt easier to show you than to tell you.

Hope your basil is going strong!

And then this video turns the view and I can share the opposite view. Let me know if this helps you! I hope you now understand how and why to do it!

Did you get your winter plants in?! Be sure to read the last newsletter on what to plant now and consider using starts if you haven’t already sown seed. Next week, I’ll be sending more tomato maintenance tips!

Keep those watering routines consistent — water more on hot days, less on cloudy days. Check your soil & stay engaged.

Happy summer-ing,

amy
