How to harvest sage?
    #20969738 - 12/13/14 01:32 AM (9 years, 5 months ago)

I have sage plant, which is pretty big, and I harvest 10 leaves every day.
How should I harvest it so it stays healthy?

sorry not an answer but im so down to grow my own sage! i was brainstorming good stuff to grow earlier this week and i cant believe i didnt think about sage

any tips?

(EDIT) : I cant believe i forgot, i was told when natives go out and harvest wild sage they make a good guess and take 4 5 6 or 7 sprigs off the plant. depends on the plants health and size.

if your harvesting leaves faster than it is replacing them you probably need more plants....

I don't have tips about growing it.
I was very surprised it grows so well.
I just put it in the soil in it strives. I assume it is the right climate and soil. (middeterenian climate).
I do think though that it can stand my harvesting, at least for a while.
I actually have two plants, but I mainly take from one of them.
I wonder if I should take from the tips, or just randomly from any leaves.
By the way it seems it has profound effect on me. Very balancing grounding and healing.

very powerful medicine and so many uses.
apparently it can tolerate a good amount of cold weather too
if your just doing individual leaves i cant imagine it hurting anything.

wow thats a decent size. my vote is if your just using loose leaves pluck them, but if your making smudge sticks harvest days further apart and take 2 - 4 sprigs.
