Extremely leggy plants?
11 years ago
Hi everyone, I'm rather new to gardening (started this past spring) and I have a few container plants on my balcony. They all seemed to be growing well until recently. I changed them into the pots they are currently in, and they have little to no growth within the last month or two. The only growth has been leaves replacing the ones I've harvested, or the leggy branches. Should I just put them in bigger pots, or something else? I'm not sure what to do.
Here are links to pics (the one uploaded is a common sage plant):
peppermint (the original plant died and this one regrew from it)
