Thinning technique

After you've transplanted your seedlings to the grow shelf. Each pod should be thinned to 1 - 2 seedlings. To do this pull out the excess seedlings using a pair of tweezers or your fingers gently.

Harvesting technique

Crop the larger leaves first by trimming at the base of each stem. You may cut the larger leaves from any point on the main stalk, and leave small, inner leaves for regrowth. Never cut the main stalk!
