Iām thinking one of the neighbor cats damaged it. I donāt know if I should cut it or if thatās even a good spot to cut it. But itās just not coming back. I have it under a grow light as itās cloudy today. My seedlings are doing well if this fails. #Catnip

Is it normal for catnip to be this much of a drama queen? We had a couple days of rain and clouds and itās droopy. I changed the pot and soil to better draining. Just hoping he perks back up. #Catnip

Hello! My #Catnip is droopy. It has these tiny blooms growing, except it looks very glum. What should I do? I think the sprinklers were running right on the plant, so I moved it. Are the sprinklers watering it too much or is there something else going wrong?

Why does she look so sad? :( #Catnip The catnip I'm growing for my cat (Bean and Cheese Taco) has started wilting in some areas. She has enough light and water and she has some plant food. Is it like a fertilizer issue?

Need some seedling help! I planted this catnip from seed and it's grown lots so I've trimmed some of the large leaves of and then some more to make the middle stock of each bush more prominent. What I need help with is how to properly either leave this plant alone or regularly trim it so it can be a nice big bush for my kitty! #catnip #help #seedling
