Signs of Cold Stress in Sage
Symptoms
Sage tolerates cold well and flourishes optimally above 65℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 60℉. If temperatures drop below 50℉, while winter changes might be unnoticeable, spring may see reduced or absent sprouting.
Solutions
In spring, remove any sections that have not sprouted.
Signs of Heat Stress in Sage
Symptoms
In summer, Sage should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures exceed 85℉, the plant's leaves may lighten, curl, become prone to sunburn, and in severe cases, the whole plant might wilt and dry out.
Solutions
Remove any sun-damaged and desiccated portions. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from midday and afternoon sun, or use a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
