Here’s where it gets really fun. The more you pick mint, the more it grows. It’s like a magic trick. By snipping the top leaves, you encourage the plant to get bushier and fuller.
Don’t be shy. Grab those stems. You can’t hurt it. In fact, if you don’t harvest, your mint will get tall and spindly—like a giraffe on stilts. Not a good look.
Always cut just above a pair of leaves. That’s where new branches will sprout. It’s like giving your plant a haircut with a clear plan: “Grow here, not there.”
