PETITTI How to Harvest Herbs

Growing your own fresh herb is one of the best things about summer! The best time to harvest your herbs is early in the morning when the plants have retained all of the moisture they can. Watch this video with Noelle, Horticulturist and Education Director with Petitti Garden Centers, to learn more about how to harvest your herbs and how to dry and freeze them for use in the winter. Fun fact, when cilantro goes to seed, it produces coriander. So, if you can’t seem to find coriander, plant cilantro and wait for it to go to seed!

A close up would’ve been nice. I still don’t understand when exactly you harvest. At what point in the plant’s growth? Where do you cut?

This is a very helpful video. It has helped me know about herbs and how to process them and much more interesting information about them.
