Yeah I agree with that comment this is simply unclear! You talk about a branch but you refer to the stem. No point telling what we 'want' to do, tell exactly and unequivocally what to cut and why! I it would be good if you were more instructive. Thanks.
I agree, I finally found some and trying my first time to grow and USE. This was not clear on what to take.said leave the stem but also said to cut stem...????
I’m still confused and there are no good videos that show EXACTLY where to cut the dill 😫 can you tell me, do I cut below the node where it splits? Or above it? Or just cut the one branch that has already split at the node? I have a really nice plant but it’s not branching too well and I want to help it. I’m a brand knew gardener so thanks for the video and any extra advice if you have it 💜
@@Kelly_Mae it really struggled. But I found out that it was because it was bolting. So after the hotter summer months I planted some new dill and it did great, without any help, until the frost came
If it is really hot, then try some shade in the afternoon. It also needs a good soil with aeration. You could try adding some vermiculite to help aerate the soil.

I got the dill plant and was wondering how to cut it thanks
In the video I give detailed instructions.
I have dill that flowered, Im tearing down that garden. Could I transplant or just start over next summer? (Wisconsin). Thanks
Once it flowers it is pretty tough to get the good tasting dill back. You could try propagating a cutting.
AM I CUTTING THE BRANCH OFF? LEAVE THE TRUNK? Looking at it like a tree to understand better.
Leave a stem below where you cut. Don't cut all the way to the base.
You can make a lovely bread using dill.
My wife loves a dill dough.
Recipe please!
I live near the ocean and temperature it's high what can I do,
A bit of shade in the hot afternoon can help it stay leafy longer

Cut right below where it leafs out. If there is a branch, then right below that.
@@pottedliving Thank you! I’ll let you know how it goes 😊💜
@@vikkifairchild9858how did it go?

So if it flowers, should I cut them off?
Yes. That is called bolting and if you cut it back you can prolong the fill.
@@pottedliving Thank you!
I don't understand how my whole bill plant wilted but I can't seem to get it to rise again. Do you have any tips?

As an indian I often get confused whether to grow them in summer or winter
The hot dry months are when the dill flowers and the dill starts to taste bad. Best when it is sunny but cooler.
