Dill is a popular and beloved herb, but only a few pay attention to the growing features.
Few people know that dill can grow lushly and bloom for a long time without producing umbrellas.
A little trick will help you achieve a big harvest.
How to Grow a Huge Dill Crop
Healthy greens can be grown anywhere: in the garden, on the balcony, and even in a simple flowerpot. And this should be done without any chemicals - the product will be much more valuable and useful.
Gardeners are wondering: how can we ensure that dill grows luxuriantly all summer long and does not form umbrellas?
It's all about proper preparation of seeds for planting: the seeds are soaked for several days in clean and warm water - no higher than 50 degrees - which should be changed 5-6 times a day. After the procedure, the dill should be dried and planted not in rows, but in bunches.
What mistakes to avoid when growing dill
Seeds
The most common is sowing old seeds. It is better not to sow them, so as not to waste time and useful space.
Grooves
They are formed using a board so that the dill lies on a hard surface and sprouts evenly.
Deep planting of seeds is unacceptable. As a rule, 3-4 cm of soil, which is used to cover the seeds, is quite sufficient.
Thickening
On dense soil, dense plantings will cause the greens to turn yellow faster.
