How to Harvest

Finally, you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor! Some plants can be harvested multiple times before they need to be removed. To help determine this check out the Plant Care Timeline for your plants.  The examples below show Radish can only be harvested once, whereas Cilantro can be harvested multiple times. 

Please check out our videos below for more information on how to harvest herbs, lettuce, and leafy greens!

Once you have harvested your plants, you must remove them from your Garden. This will ensure that the plant is no longer using up resources needed for all the other plants in your Garden. 

Large plants will typically stay in your system for 5-10 harvests or until it starts shading too many other plants. Remove the entire plant and be careful pulling roots as they may be attached to other plants. 

Failing to remove after harvest, some plants will produce flowers which release chemicals that change the flavor and make your plants taste soapy.
