Parsley is a healthy and aromatic herb that is easy to grow yourself and then use to decorate various salads, side dishes or soups.
How to Grow Parsley Properly
The seeds contain a lot of essential oils. They prevent the seeds from sprouting quickly. Therefore, it is better to take seeds that are already two or three years old for sowing.
Also, many people prefer to sow parsley before winter so that autumn rains and winter snows wash away all the essential oils.
But how else can you get rid of essential oils? There are two ways. The first involves soaking in clean water for a day. But the water should be changed periodically. Immediately after this procedure, you can proceed to planting, but it is advisable to dry the seeds a little beforehand.
The second option involves using gasoline or solvent. The planting material can be dipped into such a solution for only a minute.

You need to make rows, moisten them beforehand. Then you need to plant the seeds, but you should not sprinkle them with soil. After this, the plantings should be covered with film for two weeks.
When growing, you also need to remember about fertilizing. Any complex product will do for this. Some summer residents recommend paying attention to bird droppings for a good harvest.
