Tending Your Garden
•
Weekly pinching or cutting
of the plant just above the
uppermost set of leaves (the
growth point) at the top of the
stem will also encourage many
plants to grow and branch out.
All Non-Fruiting Plants
– If
you see flower buds or flowers on
a plant that is being grown for its
leaves, not its fruit or flowers,
remove them. Cut the flowering
stem just above a set of leaves, no
more than 1/3 of the way down the
stem. This will extend the life and
productivity of your plant.

HELPFUL HINT: For easier pruning,
remove the
Bowl
from the
Base
. This
makes it easier to reach all the plants
and shape your garden.
