I'll do some library reading about this, but in the meantime I wanted to pick your brains.

When growing herbs, do you need to pinch off what you need daily to weekly? I tried cilantro last year, and it flowered within a week. If I had cut off the tops, would it still have produced more leaves?

I've never tried herbs before (except the cilantro), so any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks!

With herbs, you need to cut off some every few days or pinch off the flowering part when you see it starting to flower. Unless you have a larg herb garden then it doesn't matter as much. ;) At least that has been my experience. ;)
