No need for umbrellas on dill – and no need to grow them: we reveal the secret of experienced gardeners
After the umbrellas appear, dill, as a rule, begins to quickly lose leaf mass.
However, this can be prevented. You just need to resort to a little trick.
We tell you how to plant dill so that it produces greens all summer long.
How to plant dill correctly
The main rule is to plant dill not in rows, but in clumps.
We make holes 10-15 centimeters in size, place dill seeds in them, cover with soil, and water.
It is also extremely important to properly prepare the planting material.
The seeds should be placed in gauze bags and soaked in hot water (temperature 50 degrees) for 3 days.
The water must be changed at least 5 times a day. Then we put the seeds on a damp cloth, cover with a damp cloth and keep at room temperature until the shoots appear (about 5 days).
Next, the seeds need to be dried: hang the bags in a well-ventilated place for half an hour.
