Rosemary

I know there are only about 5 rosemary fans here, but mines leaves are curling over. What am I doing wrong?

To humid/wet they will do that and can be an indication of root problems such as rot. I would suggest a repot with a light root trimming, checking drainage. They are one picky plant when it comes to humidity and at my place they do good indoors but NOT in our plant room - East window exposure filtered a bit by window blinds, light watering does best.
It could be spider mites but I don't think so

Should I move it to afternoon sun balcony to get dry heat then?

So, it’s been a while. Since pruning scars don’t heal well on Rosemary I chose to tear off what I needed for cooking since I figured it would create a natural and more weathered look. The front is now all clean and I nipped off the top occasionally to help the other branches fatten up.

I think now I can look into more definite branch selection and somehow balance it out, I got fat branching at the top and skinny ones at the bottom.

Just a pity I never paid attention to the trunk that developed painfully straight.

No worries! I see it as having tremendous character now, with the "damage" -- looks like the trunk of a tree that's seen a catastrophic storm late in a relatively uneventful life.

Thank you for the pointer -- I've been interested in trying rosemary for a while, so this is encouraging!
