I have been making sage chips. Absolutely delicious. The lady that demonstrated said to let your sage leaves wilt for an hour but didn’t really know why just that she was taught that way. She says she has used them after she washed them and dried them with a paper towel. I do the the faster version because after you have these you can’t wait the hour for them to wilt. I also take the stems off but not necessary, they are a little tough. Anyway, I use olive oil and butter in a skillet, enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan, you can add as much butter as you like. I use a low setting, put the sage leaves in, it’s going to sizzle for a couple of seconds. Let it cook for a minute or two, turn it over and let it cook a few more minutes, not too long. Take it out and put it on a paper towel or just on a plate because the olive oil is so tasty. I use a Greek seasoning to sprinkle on top. Wait for it to cool down if you can and eat. Crunchy and delicious.
That's a wonderful idea Debbie
Thanks for sharing !
That sounds delicious I just started sage seeds so I'm definitely gonna have to try this!
hmmm sounds like another great treat to make with the sage I'm growing. Thanks!
Sage chips make me forget all about potato chips. I fry mine in coconut oil. They usually don't make it to the table- I eat them at the stove.
I have a bush that has very long woody branches with just leave growing on the tips. I used the layering technique. Rough up the stem the same way but just dig a trench and put the branch into the ground leaving the green tips up. These will root ad produce new pants. Once well rooted, you can clip off the branches and either replant elsewhere or just leave it in place to fill in and make a nice big planting.
beautiful - I love it - well done!
I love sage in my beans and also as a tea...thanks for the great information.
Mmm - sage and beans is a delicious combo! You're welcome!
Wow! I have two very large white sage grandma plants and we are trying to learn how to propagate a new plant for my Son’s home. This was so much help. Thank you! Wow! Your little baby plant grew so big! I hope mine does as well. 🙏🏽👍🏽
Next generation Sage - fantastic.
Blessings as you grow!
I have 2 sage plants in my garden. One of them has varigated leaves. Thank you for this video. I feel like I now know what and how to use it and care for it 👍
Sage mushroom shallot mince ball crumbed. Shallow fried 🤤
When you have leftover or pruning you can burn them like insence , it's actually good for us too us.
Well, that sounds amazing! thank you :)
Love sage!
Super helpful video! Thanks from another Canadian gardener! I inherited a small sage plant from a friend - looking forward to trying out some new dishes with it. Thanks for the tips! I will definitely be trying to propagate it via cuttings too!
Wahoo - Go Canada!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video and trust you get lots of satisfaction from the sage plant :)
Thank you so much for making it very simple how to route so huge I really appreciate the simple way of showing it’s amazing how big it’s gotten a year so beautiful thanks🥰

Thanks Chris - welcome to the channel!
Wow💪👍👌
Thank you
You are welcome!
Thank you! As an Australian I generally forget that it snows for months in america. It’s incredibly rare to see snow in Australia (with a few select places excluded. It gets cold during July and august here). Light frost is typically the most we see which leaves the ground at 7:30am usually.
Loved your no waffle, just pure info video with a great tip on how to use herbs, which I will definitely try 😀
Yay! Thank you Joanne - wishing you a wonderful spring :)
Job well done mate 😍😍
thanks Layla!
Love you commentary & enthusiasm 🌈🌈🍀🍀
Thanks Marlene!
Great video. Love your trick of blending fresh herbs with rice!
Thank you Isabelle !
I thought couldn’t learn anything new in the kitchen. And here we are … never thought of blending herbs with rice before.
Would absolutely use that in soup … for flavor and thickening!
Loved the method off using fresh herbs easily.
Great to hear!
That's very nice of you to help people to be successful in plants. Your kindness is very appreciated. Thank you.
You're welcome MayLee.
Nice 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Rachel !
It goes with pineapple as a marinade
Yum!
EXCELLENT teaching! You are in which Zone? I am in Zone 5b and so few of my perennials came back, probably freezing cold and too much snow here.
Thanks Yanni P. We're in Zone 8. if it's seemingly hit and miss over winter, intense mulching may help you hold onto a few more plants over the cold months.
Thank you for this information! I've had a sage plant for a few years now and it thrives beautifully if I just leave it alone. Of course I trim back the branches in spring, but other than that... I never thought to propagate it! Guess what I'll be doing next! lol. When my sage is grown, my neighbor (before she moved) always asked for some. they make a tea of it. I put it in all my meat dishes, and even some salad dishes. There are great recipes all over the web! :D
Yes, Sage has amazing flavour. It smells so beautiful!
Happy propagating :)
I'm just learning about growing and using sage. Your video is very helpful! One thing I tried this past week is using sage for a hot tea. It's super yummy.
Thanks for sharing!
Zone 6b/7a here in central KY. Our sage plant has recently emerged and is rather leggy. Going to take cuttings to propagate amd rhe cut it back to ground level and add soel compost as it starts regeowing. Thanks for the tips.
You're welcome for the tips. Thanks for sharing where you're located!
I've been growing common sage for years. I just got some Salvia apiana seeds I can't wait to grow white Sage and hopefully be successful propagating it
fantastic - good luck!
Love sage in a tomato onion salad :0) It (sage)keeps brain cells healthy
Great idea JosE - thanks !
Hey there! I found i little sage snippets, wanted to save it and found your video! Hope it does as well as your bushes!! Also amazing tip for using sage at the end, another thing we do here in Italy with sage is to simply dry the leaves as best as you can (leaving them in a warm dry place on some paper), and dry it also has many many uses!
The best one is to boil some water, when it comes to boil, throw some leaves in and turn the heat off, wait some minutes and you have an amazing natural mouthwash, works amazingly well at keeping your mouth healty and the smell and taste is amazing if you like sage! If you want to drink it, leave the leaves to boil for at least 3 mins!
Last thing are some dishes that i love, Gnocchi with butter and sage are just delicious, and a simply porkchop basted in butter and sage is also amazing!
I love sage so muchhh
Thanks for all your great snippets on sage Aquaman! You made me hungry with the idea of gnocchi, butter and sage :) Happy gardening.
the way you cut sage cuttings is quite unique, will try it to see if its better.
I hope you have success with your cuttings!
Good video 🙂,
The only thing is that propagating all type sage work except for the White Sage ( Salvia Apiana). Tried and all possibilities and also give the challenge to 2 professional housegarden. Trust me nothing works so far. I did a big production with them with 15 % success germination from seeds (another sad news).
Thanks for sharing, but where can I buy a bush or seeds? Subscriber in NW Florida.
Hi Leah - that's a great question.
Where we live, there are always an ample supply of herb starts available in spring at all the yard & garden centres. You should have no problem locating a Sage plant to get things rolling at your place :)
Hi! I am inspired to start a sage plant (and also thyme) from cuttings after watching your video. People do so many things but you make it look simple. Now that I have cuttings with rooting hormone in a soil-less mix, do I just put it on windowsill and water when the medium looks a little dry? How should I keep the root zone moist? This is what most people seem to struggle with the most. Thank you for your most interesting channel!
Hi Smita - thanks for your comments.
I'm glad you are going to work on growing a new Sage and Thyme plant!
Yes, water the new start so that the soil/roots are kept moist.
As long as you gently pour water around the roots/stem of the plant - that will be fine. You don't want to disturb the roots when you are watering.
Best of luck!
@@SustainableStace Thank you!
@@SustainableStace Well, what do you know. It worked! I now have a bunch of tiny rooted thyme and sage plants. Not roots busting out of the pots but firmly rooted and putting on new growth. I was not expecting to succeed, what do I do now? Can I put the cuttings in a large pot (one for thyme and one for sage) and leave them outside? Will they grow enough roots to establish and survive the winter? I am in zone 7A so there is still some warm weather left. Or is it best to keep these guys inside this winter? I dont have that much space inside but could pull it off. I would prefer outside. What do you think? How did you take care of your little sage plant through the winter? Thanks!
Oh! I just heard that if you propagate an edible plant with rooting hormone then you should not eat any part of it for an year. Is this true?
Herbal salts also a great way to use herbs in kitchen.
Great video, I have a sage plant that looks more like sagebrush out in the desert. I need to move it to plant something else in its spot. Would you recommend transplanting this to another location at this time May 10th? Or should I just propagate the one I have to a new location? Thanks again 👍
Hey DC - great question. I don't know where you live but most people in North America are too far into the warm/summer season to be transplanting. I'd suggest propagate a few shoots now and then try for the transplant when it's moved into dormant/winter season.

Just what I needed to know.
So cat droppings are okay For the Garden I gave the gift my neighbor
Cat left back to his yard this morning. GBY
I am allergic to cats I love Them
Anyway
I planted sage seeds last year and read somewhere that I couldn't harvest it the first year. So this year is year two and it has never been cut back at all. It is about 12" tall and is blooming little purple flowers. Can you tell me when I can harvest the leaves? I want to dehydrate them and grind them for my turkey and dressing this Thanksgiving. Should I cut it back now, I live in Kentucky. I have grown it in a pot as I live in an apartment. Please help me. I thank you in advance.
Sage is absolutely DE-LICIOUS in a cast iron skillet along with garlic cloves, and rosemary stem& leaves while searing a NY Strip steak... I have started growing more Sage since then but having a lil trouble that's why I'm watching this video. Mine are hydropini ... any tips ?
I love your delish ious idea!
I don't do hydroponics so I'm not able to provide tips on that. wishing you success!
Hi, I love you, you're so real and your place is wonderful. I've heard you can use ground aspirin for rooting hormone, is that true? Thanks for sharing your beautiful Sage, I love sage. I thought I was the only one that rubbed Rosemary and Sage on my neck to smell good😂Thanks for any help 💚 ✝️
Hey Jude :)
You got me wondering as I'd never heard that before.
I checked out this site: www.gardenmyths.com/aspirin-rooting-hormone/
There's inference it may work but then examples shared where it doesn't.
I can't confirm or deny :)
Hi sorry about my poor English as this is not my first language. I have bought a small plant having 6-7 leaves 2 inch long. I wanted to ask is can I bend it to circular way and put more soil to cover that part so that it produces roots on each node. Is it possible to do it or it wont work. I have done this method with mint and I was very successful, I wanted to know whether I can do it with sage and rosemary and lemon balm
Thanks for your question - I love it!
Unfortunately, I don't know if that will work b/c I've never tried it. But, I think it will!
Awesome does this technique also work with rosemary
Yes it does!
and here's a little video to help you along:

I have a new baby sage
I have put it on the window sill to get some sun today - i think it needs repotting too
how is it growing?
hi thx for d video does all kinds of sage work the same way？
Hi Diane - I suspect you're talking about lifecycle or rooting a cutting.
In which case, YES I believe so.
@@SustainableStace thank you very much coz where i live only has greek sage which the stems are alot thinner n greener，i tried to cute them and put them in the water but unfortunately not very successful ... will try to use the rootbooster thx so much again
It’s very good with sweet potato mash with olive oil.
Great tip!
thank you Sam Silva
Hi Mr. Canadian Plant Man, I am also Canadian, I cut down a perennial plant all the way to the ground, wasn't thinking! Cut to the stubs, next sprung, do you think it will come back at all?
PS - the root system is still fully in the ground, hoping it comes back next year?
Hi Victoria,
I love the title 'Mr Cdn Plant Man' !
YES! I'm a believer that the perennial will spring back. It's still has its roots and it's programmed to grow.
What's the name of the rooting powder?
Just search for rooting powder. I have it in 3 types which are dependent on the woodiness or softness of the plant stems which you are rooting. But, there are universal rooting powders meant to work on all / most plants!
In turkey they do tea with sage
Just wondering, did you take your sage cutting inside for the winter or did you leave it outside?
I take cuttings early in the growing season and get then established. They stay outside.
@@SustainableStace Sounds Good! Thanks!
🌺👍🌺👍🌺👍
Hi i have a question. Can you do this by picking a sage stem from a cleansing stick?
Hello Christina - I don't know what a cleansing stick is!
If it's LIVING, and freshly picked, you'll have good chances of propagation success :)
Cleansing sticks are dried so it won’t work because it isn‘t fresh
@@wren3753 yeah thats what i figured 😭 thats alright tho i bought some fresh white sage seeds
@@Labrynthcrystalize just a quick reminder that you probably shouldn't use white sage if you're not native american! it's an endangered species and sacred to their practice, so if you're white/not native you shouldn't be using it because it's a closed practice :)
@@wren3753 except i am native American for your information
which once is best for beef steak??? is it sage, thyme, or rosemary???
I'm sorry Alex - I don't understand your question.
Do you mean which herb is best to accompany a beefsteak tomato?
If that is what you mean - I would always suggest that fresh basil is the best flavour to go with tomato :) And thyme is likely my second preference.
Hi..everyone says that sage is so easy to propagate but honestly..ive tried soooo many times to propagate it and still no success..ive tried your method and the water method but no luck..i will keep trying..this time I will do it in early spring..should you cover the sage cutting with a plastic bag to keep humidity around it?Thank you
I'm sorry to hear - it sounds like the struggle is real!
The plastic bag over the cutting idea sounds viable, if it doesn't get too warm. It sounds like you're suggesting a sort of 'green house' environment.
I'd suggest you identically try one of each at the same time (with and without the plastic bag around it) and see which one does the best!
I'd love to hear the outcome. Good luck and blessings on your propagation efforts :)
hi..yes...the struggle is definitely real..lol..but that's how we learn right?😉haha..thank you so much
I love sage on a tomato sandwich.
A perfect pairing Nancy !
I want Sage Seeds, if you have Thanks
I don't have sage seeds and I've never seen our sage produce seeds. Cuttings or purchasing a tiny start is an easy way to get your own sage going!
Do u Really need rooting hormone
Good question.
Nope - so much of what we do in life and gardening is about 'increasing our chances' !
@@SustainableStace thanks for reply I tried cinnamon on a couple sage plants and other ones don’t have it but i did it the way u did it
Funny! I rub a little rosemary, pineapple/sage, oregano, lemon thyme, etc which ever herbs are plentiful on MYSELF as natural bug repellent. The more herbs the better!
Thank you
You're welcome
