Where do you prune dill?

There is no great mystery here; simply use kitchen shears to snip off the dill leaves and add them to your latest culinary creation. You can begin using dill a few weeks after seeding. Pinch out the top buds on the dill to keep the plant from getting too leggy or tall.

Can you use dill that has flowered?

Not only do dill flowers make a pretty addition to a flower arrangement, but they can also be dried to collect their seeds, and you can eat them, too! Add the flowers to a jar of pickles, use them to garnish a plate, add them to a salad, or enjoy them anywhere else you'd use the leaves.

How do you harvest dill without killing the plant?

Cutting the Leaves Cut the leaves off where they join the stem, preferably when the Dill plant is over eight weeks old and has numerous leaves on it. You need to cut the leaves carefully, without harming the main stalk. While snipping, you can cut more than two-thirds of the leaves and leave the rest.
