Use and recipes
Try some of these recipes with your freshly harvested produce.
Stage 1Germination in nursery
Two little round leaves should pop up and grow above the plant pod.
Stage 2 Initial growth
Your plant should have two sets of leaves by now and is big enough to absorb nutrients.
Move into garden
Once your plant has grown its second set of leaves, carefully move it from your Nursery into an empty place in your Garden.
Thin out
In order to give your plant enough space, carefully pinch off the plants their base. Leave only one plant.
Stage 3 Mid growth
Your plant is now halfway through its life! It should look bigger and have several sets of leaves. You may be able to pick a few leaves off here and there as long as you leave 75% of the plant still growing.
Stage 4 Flower
Stage 5 Fruit
Stage 6Harvest
Your plant should have several sets of leaves and should be much bigger. You are able to harvest much more from this plant now that it is bigger.
Harvest plant
This plant can be harvested multiple times before it should be removed. To harvest, take older branches, cutting at the base of the branch so as to not leave extra stem.
Stage 7 Remove plant
Your herb should be removed from your Garden when it starts producing small flowers.
Remove plant
When the plant produces these flowers, it releases chemicals that change the flavor and make your plant taste ‘soapy’.
