Default Herb harvesting

Xref: kermit rec.gardens:278879

Snip only what you intend to use and leave the lower portions for the plant
to grow. If you cut it all the way to the ground, the plant dies.

This has to be one of the dumbest questions I have ever asked, but please
bear with my lack of knowledge.

I'm just growing herbs for the first time. When snipping chives, do I
snip
an inch or so at once from the entire growth, or do I clip the individual
chive stem down to the base?

(Told you it was dumb. ;-( but I'll learn.)
