Summer residents pay attention not only to tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, carrots and other common crops, but also to greens.

Dill, sorrel, arugula, spinach, basil, parsley – all these plants can also be found in the garden of an amateur gardener.

Greens are popular because they grow quickly and are resistant to cold. Parsley is a leader in this indicator, but when growing it, it is worth remembering a few nuances.

The best harvest will be collected not by the gardener who planted greens earlier than everyone else, but by the one who chose the right place. It is different for each plant, including parsley.

It should be planted in early spring so that it has time to ripen. The best place for it is a site with partial shade or full sun.

Therefore, it is recommended to plant greens in a place where sunlight reaches at least 4-6 hours a day.

Parsley prefers sandy loam and loamy soils with a loose structure. The acidity level is 6-7 pH. The parsley bed is fertilized with manure (in autumn), humus or compost. The spicy crop does not like stagnant moisture.
