8:59My Basil Pruning Trick for Bigger, Bushier Plants! 🪴
Save referenceDesired Outcome
The pot, stool and grey wall match on each side, so all that changes is the basil, from one skinny sprig to a dome of leaves. If yours has ever stayed thin and straggly, that's the plant you wanted. 'Trick' promises one small move.
Without 'Pruning Trick', the split could just be a young plant growing up, so the title makes the change the result of one move you can copy.
Against a plain grey wall, the bright green basil is the only bright colour, so the jump in size reads instantly even at 168 px.
When your before and after could be mistaken for natural growth, name the one move that caused it in the title. Keep everything else in the two shots identical so the change is the only thing to see.
Name the move, or the change looks like it happened anyway.
Apply this pattern to your next video.
Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
