    You can pinch off the tips of the plant to promote more growth.
    You can prune off the old growth in the early spring to the lowest bud at the base of the plant.
    Snip off the developing flower stalks in the summer, this will promote more leafy greens.
    You can snip and trim throughout the summer for use and neat looking plants.

    We did not receive the images.

    Your plant may not be receiving enough sunlight in an indoor location.

    It would be very difficult to give you a good answer without knowing more detail. Could you include pictures?

    Thank you for the picture. I notice that this is in clay soil. This has a tendancy to be a little alkaline. This plant likes the be slightly on the acidic side. You can add iron sulfate to help here. Also, it would seem that the humidity is a little low. It would help to mist and water the plant in very early morning while the sun is still low. It could be that your compost has an infection, which the iron sulfate will correct as well. Make sure to add just a little bit of dolomitic lime to the soil to keep the pH stable, as a quick pH swing can also cause these symptoms.

    Yellowing leaves could be a watering issue; too much or too little moisture.
    It could also be light issues, disease or pests.

    I believe this will need a larger container pretty soon. In such a small container, it is likely to run out of nutrients very quickly, which would produce the symptoms that are happening now.

    I would repot into a larger pot, and add compost to the soil. This will feed the plant. When you start noticing signs of this happening again, just add more compost to the top, some dolomitic lime, and worm castings if you would like. This will boost it up again.

    Container gardening can be tedious, but it has its obvious advantages as well. This article will give you more information on the care of these: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/herbs/curry/growing-curry-leaf.htm
