• Pruning: Trim sage plants as needed to encourage bushy growth and remove any dead or yellowing leaves.

• Pest and Disease Management: Sage is generally pest-resistant, but monitor for issues like aphids or powdery mildew. Use organic pest control methods if necessary.

Harvesting and Usage

• Harvesting: Harvest sage leaves as needed once the plants are established. Use scissors or pruners to snip off individual leaves or sprigs.

• Drying: To preserve sage for later use, dry the leaves by hanging them upside down in a dry, well-ventilated area. Once dry, store the leaves in airtight containers.
