Coriander sprouts appear very quickly – just 2-3 days after sowing.
As reported by ADVICE.NEWS , the entire vegetation period of the plant is about 115 days.
How to Grow Cilantro
It is not necessary to soak the seeds before planting if you want to grow greens on a balcony or windowsill.
If you are going to plant the seeds outdoors, you can soak them in room temperature water.
But, let us repeat, the procedure is not mandatory.
For planting, choose a sunny spot in the garden. In winter, additional lighting will be needed - for example, phytolamps or regular fluorescent lamps, which should be placed at a height of half a meter above the grass.
The seeds are planted at a depth of 1.5-2 cm in the soil at a distance of 6-7 cm from each other.
Watering cilantro
During the period of active leaf growth – 5-8 l per 1 sq. m; for formed fruits and umbrellas – 2-3 l per 1 sq. m.
During dry periods, cilantro needs to be watered frequently, otherwise the leaves will become coarse and the greens will not be as tasty.
Why you can't eat cilantro when it's blooming
If you are growing cilantro for its greens, you only need the leaves of the crop.
Once the plant has flowered and begun to produce seeds, the greens and leaves become virtually inedible.
Conclusion: eat cilantro in a timely manner.
