Additional info:
Shiso germinates in about 12 days. Shiso grows slowly at first but accelerates later.
There are two options for cutting:
1) Cut Shiso at the top when it is about eight cm tall, and continue harvesting by cutting the stem so that at least one pair of leaves remains. This will make the plant grow new branches with small leaves that can then be harvested.
2) Let shiso grow without cutting the top at all. In this way, the individual leaves become very large.
Either way, shiso can be harvested about a month after sowing.
