- How do I know when to harvest my herbs

[YareliGregory]

Sure thing! Here are six different ways to answer that question:

**Look for the Leaves**: Check the leaves! When they’re vibrant and full-sized, it’s usually a good sign they’re ready to be harvested. Just make sure you’re not taking too much at once!

**Smell Test**: If your herbs are smelling super fragrant, that’s a pretty good indicator they’re ready. Give ‘em a sniff and see if they have that strong aroma!

**Time of Year**: Most herbs are best harvested in the morning after the dew has dried but before the sun gets too hot. It’s like the sweet spot for flavor!

**Flowering Stage**: If you notice your herbs starting to flower, it’s a sign they’re reaching their peak. But you might want to harvest before they bloom for the best taste!

**Taste Test**: Just take a little nibble! If the flavor is strong and yummy, then it’s time to go for it. Trust your taste buds!
