Sage. Yum! I bought one little plant from a greenhouse in the spring. I've harvested enough from that one plant to last me a year. Its still going. I brought it in for the winter (zone 6 {I think}) Enjoy that sage; its great for you! Thanks for teaching me how to propagate, and grow more. I might sell some at my local farmers market next year.
Great video! Thanks! BTW, I live in Oklahoma, so I've been drying herbs in my hot car! Usually only takes one day! I dried sliced plums and apples in the car, too!
I have got all three daughters into gardening. In fact one daughter’s husband now wants to become a farmer and grow his entire food supply (veggies, raise pigs, chickens, etc) I’m having a terrible time trying to propagate sage. You have answered a lot of questions here. Going out to try your tips! Thank you.
Thanks. I have had zero interest in this kind of thing, until taking over a coworkers orphan herb garden. It's all very interesting, and it sounds silly but I love it now.
I did enjoy your video. You have inspired me to try drying leaves from my sage plant. I shall also attempt to propagate pieces to share with friends 😊. Thank you so much! Keep those thumbs green 😉. Lady Bell
Your sage plants are the prettiest I've seen. Just starting out from seed at this point, but hoping my plants look very similar to yours as opposed to the more slender leaves. Thanks for sharing!
This has been so helpful and you have a great kind way of explaining things. Thank you for sharing your experience, knowledge and love for herbs. All the best with your continued gardening
Very good video. Just purchased Garden sage for myself and seems like a very Medicinal herb with many Uses. Keep Gardening and stay Healthy Viewers.....friends n Family
Thank you very much for this video Khang. We have moved to a house that has a huge sage bush and I wondered if I could propagate it and maybe gift it to friends and family. Your video is just what I needed. Thank you once again.
A simple, elegant plant. Thank you. I've been growing this past year but haven't used any in cooking. I have given as gift. Very pretty. I'm drying some now and will use soon.
Thank you Khang, You have given me the best advice that I have gotten yet. I am a city girl afraid of natural things because it isn't in a jar :) I have had sage for years. I make home made sausage which call for sage and I was buying sage because I didn't know how to dry my sage. you have been very helpful.
What a great video. You left no stone unturned. Your videos have really helped me with my horrible gardening skills. If I could only figure out why I can´t get cilantro and parsley to grow... I live in Mexico City so I think the climate is right. I just propagated some sage (salvaje) that I bought from the supermarket. I hope it works.
Thanks for the tips, the sage we have is the thin pointy leaf kind. Last year we grew some but the squirrels ate it all, and now they have come back after not doing anything to protect them over the winter even in -20 weather. hardy plants thats for sure. Hopefully i get to dry some this year.
Might not be necessary depends where you are. My winters can drop to below 0 and my sage has started to regrow without much help. Very resilient plant.
The sage you show is culinary sage and the cultivar is, I believe, Sage 'Berggruen.' This culinary sage is rather different that the long-leaved sage, which I guess could be used for culinary use, but is stronger and bitter, but the plant has wonderful profus purple flowers in summer that are much loved by bees.
I use the paper bag method too. I have also dried it in a low temperature oven, but you have to be very careful because it is easy to heat it too long and ruin it. 150 rot 6 to 10 minutes should be long enough for most herb when layed in a single layer on parchment paper.
Patrice's Projects Hi, can you please tell me more about the paper bag method. Such as, do you leave the top open? Can you use any size paper bag, i.e. “lunch bag” size? Thank you. I look forward to receiving your reply.
Nice herbs next to your sage. QUESTIONS: 1: What is the green and white plant to the right of your sage, is that an herb too? 2. Do you close the paper bag or leave it open when drying the sage? 3. Does the bag need to be in a warm place to dry and not mold? My house temperature is kept at 68 degrees. 4. Does the Sage come back in the spring if you get below freezing temperatures? 5. If it does come back in the spring in colder climates, do I need to transfer it out of my 20 gallon pot to the ground in order for it to survive? 6. Can you grow sage indoors? Thanks for the nice video on harvesting and drying sage. I am going to give it a try right now. This is my first time drying sage.
I'm a senior citizen and I grow beautiful chemical free sage but didn't know how to dry it, keep it, and root it. Thanks so much for sharing this with us! Have a blessed weekend #KhangStarr John 3:17
Thanks for the info! Trying the propagation today for the first time...never had any luck but I'm gonna use your technique . Have a safe one brother :)
Thanks for your informative video. I really enjoy it. One question for you, would I be able to use the same suggested steps for drying and propagating with white sage?
Hilarious! I was thinking something is so familiar in this video?? I have the same marble counter top and I live in Cuenca, Ecuador! I grow my own sage and it is very thick and furry. It takes a long time to dry. It is medicinal and used in tea to cure pulmonary issues like coughs, pneumonia, bronchitis.
White sage is the plant most often used in burning bundles, it is endangered in the wild. It can be used as a culinary herb. Common sage (the one he has in the video) can also be used in burning bundles. SO they are both fine for any use.
like our Native ancestors taught us, we burn sage to bless our homes and to encourage peace, love, health, and freedom from fear and destructive harmful thoughts.We have been burning sage more than ever this year. You can do a TH-cam search for videos by respected elders on how to do sage blessings and you can learn how to make sage sticks (they look like chubby cigars) and if you run out of sage you can purchase sage sticks for blessings on Amazon. Native people can pick sage on their lands, but it is endangered in the wild from over harvesting so responsible people who respect sage grow it from packaged seeds. Blessings.
White sage is the holy grail of sages. Used medicinally and to make cleansing bundles, it is indeed endangered from over harvesting and is somewhat hard to start from seed. Cherish your white sage. I was finally able to get some started from seeds and have a small stand that is 4 years old. Had no luck cloning because I just stuck the pruned pieces in soil. Thanks to this video, I will try again.
Hey my new best teacher 👍👍👍 Thanks for all the information. . I just got my Ghost chillies up an running. .they look very small but I guess there grow next year Thanks again . Pizz
Hi Khang--I have a healthy sage plant in my garden and for some reason, this season it has come back bright green instead of the soft green the leaves used to be. The leaves taste more bitter in this new color. What happened to my plant and how do I get the soft pale green leaves back? It is April now. I like to use the light green leaves fried on top of salmon.
Thank you for a great video. Couple of queries: 1. Do you leave the brown bag open or closed in order to dry the leaves 2. After bottling the dried leaves, do you store them in the refrigerator or in the pantry?
Sage.
Yum!

Thanks now I know how to propagate my sage. I dry the leaves to make my own smudge sticks but I never thought about propagating it.
Katrina Harvey what’s the smudge stick?
I just picked a bunch of sage and I'm going to give this a try. I love your very simple, no music background video.
I had no idea!!! Thank you for this wonderful video! I realize it is a few years old but I just saw it today!!! Blessings!
Thanks. I have had zero interest in this kind of thing, until taking over a coworkers orphan herb garden. It's all very interesting, and it sounds silly but I love it now.
It is all healing from nature. With good knownledge and use It can heal and cure diseases to pains in life.

Thanks for the video Khang! You do an excellent job of showing and explaining.
Sweet video, sensible man, sensitive SOUL
Really only was looking for advice on how to safely harvest sage, but I absolutely adored the propagating tips, too! Cheers~
Thanks to you, I will propagate my sage like this from now on! Much easier than seeds!
I love this video, it is more helpful than other videos I have watched.
Learned so much, thank you for creating this educational video. Wonderfully produced.
Very good video. Clear and easy to understand. I learned so much. Thank You. I will be planting herbs next growing seasons.

Thank you!!! I’m excited to propagate some for the winter inside!
Thanks for your video, very informative and clear. And I like your voice/way to speak!

Thank you for the clear short video! Very helpful. So I guess stems are not to be chopped for tea with the leaves…
Thank you. That was very informative!
This year was my first growing an herbal garden, i was a complete beginner and found this video super helpful when harvesting my sage! Thank you 🥰
Very well explained. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing. I will try my hand at this. Shalom.
Thank you, Khang. good to know how to prune and dry sage. Can you tell me what can you use sage leaf for ?
Great video bud. As always.
Thank you for this video! I have a huge safe plant and I didn’t know the proper way to harvest it. I will try to propergate some now too 😆
very helpful! my sage is dealing with root rot and i cut the stem in order to attempt propagation before the entire stem dies.
Thank you this my first time trying to make sage smudge.
Really insightful..I’ve learnt so much. Thank you 🙏🏼 ☺️
Many thanks for the helpful information you've provided.
Thank you. Your video is very helpful and informative.
Thank YOU. Great Video!!! Now to go out and cut my sage!!!
This vid was really nice. Well done and thanks!
Excellent video, thank you so much for sharing!
This video was great straight to the point.
Excellent explanation. Thank you!
Excellent video 👏
My garden started freezing last winter, so I covered them with towels at night. Very easy to do it that way. 🙋🏻♀️🙏🏼
Might not be necessary depends where you are. My winters can drop to below 0 and my sage has started to regrow without much help. Very resilient plant.
Thx u! I just planted sage a few months ago and wow! Your right, it’s very hardy....I’m going to try replanting (Propagate😉)...cheers!
Very helpful video. Thank you

Great video!
How do you (or would you) treat powdery mildew on your sage?
Can it be washes off before adding to your cooking?
I enjoyed this a lot! you just showed me what I did wrong. lol. thank you👍
Butter, melt , garlic, sage, ice cube tray, pop out a couple from freezer when needed
Thank you for a great video. Couple of queries:
1. Do you leave the brown bag open or closed in order to dry the leaves 2. After bottling the dried leaves, do you store them in the refrigerator or in the pantry?
In the pantry
Loved the video. Thank you.very helpful.😳💕🌱
thanks, great video,
Can I ask what your soil mixture is in sowing sage seeds? Is it true it needs alkaline soil?
