How do I make my basil bushy?
To make a basil plant grow bushy rather than tall and leggy, regular pruning is a must. It might seem counterintuitive, but the more you prune, the more basil you will reap in the long run. When growing herbs such as basil, pruning and harvesting are one and the same because you can use or dry the clippings as desired.
Do herbs regrow?
Most herbs have the best flavor and fragrance before flowering. Harvest about one-third to one-half of the plant just as the flower buds appear. Annual herbs can be cut back more severely since they do not overwinter and they will regrow quickly.
Should you cut back herbs?
The best time to prune is early spring, but there is a second chance now, once flowering is over. Remove the spent flowers and cut the stems back to a pair of leaves on no more than a third of the overall plant. Next spring, cut another third and you'll find your herbs will stay in a good productive shape.
