Pruning: to cut off leaves and some parts of their stems to help them grow
Hardening: the preparations of your indoor plants to become outdoor plants
Basic Tools: hands or simple scissors
-Never prune more then 1/3 of the plant
-Avoid ripping at any cost for that could lead to diseases
Herbaceous Herbs:
-they wilt in the winter
-prune the blossoming flowers
Evergreen Herbs:
-prune once a year
-prune in early spring or fall
How To Prune:
-For leafier plants, cut into where the stem meets the leaf
-For woodier plants, keep well trimmed so they don't become too woody, and pinch some of the leaves back. Start to prune in early spring.
-Prune from the top as the bottom leaves are used as a base
-Remove 1-2 in. of the stem so it sprouts into more branches and becomes more filled out
