In case you are new or couldn’t tell at this point, I am new to this gardening thing. Just taking things as they come.
The one thing that I do know (I think) is that when plants start to flower, they are coming near the end of their productive lives.
So I was a bit concerned, when my basil plants began flowering so early. What’s a man to do when his basil plant is coming to it’s end? I did what anyone else would do these days…I asked my peoples on Twitter.
Luckily for me, master gardener Teresa O’Connor of SeasonalWisdom dropped some knowledge on me and advised me to snip the flowers.
That’s what I did when I took to my Brooklyn vegetable garden. I picked off the flowers and am hoping to prolong it’s life.
Thanks Teresa!
