    I was going to see if I could transplant some of my tiny stevia thinking they somehow were separate leaves. It turns out they weren't and.... well I found this

    It was awesome. I put it back in its old container because I didn't have anything big enough for it but I added new soil lol. Hopefully these grow stronger so that I can get clippings out of them

    Fantastic! Do you use the plant to sweeten your drinks or food?

    Somewhat anxiously awaiting your answer to 2ofus's question.. If your answer is 'YES' maybe you will also tell us 'HOW'....

    I use it to sweeten tea. Just like you would woth mint there are other ways im sure buy fresh stevia in twatwtea or coffee to sweeten it is about all i know. Just let.it steep for a few minites in the hot drink and it tends to sweeten well. I havent done much experimenting with it so.... sometimes i just chew on leaves thetthey do taste a good deal like sugar :)
