Planting Instructions

1. Seed Preparation:

   • Coriander seeds don’t require special preparation but slightly crushing them can speed up germination.

2. Sowing:

   • Select a sunny spot in your garden or use containers with good drainage.
   • Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep, covering them lightly with soil.
   • Space seeds about 6 inches apart if sowing directly in the ground.
   • Gently water the soil to keep it moist but not waterlogged.

3. Germination:

   • Coriander seeds typically germinate within 7 to 21 days, depending on soil conditions.
   • Keep soil consistently moist during germination.
   • Ideal germination temperatures are between 55°F and 68°F (13°C to 20°C).

4. Transplanting:

   • Coriander has a long taproot, making it difficult to transplant.
   • It’s best to sow seeds directly in their final growing location.
   • If starting indoors, use biodegradable pots to minimize root disturbance when transplanting.

5. Care and Maintenance:

   • Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, particularly during dry spells.
   • Apply mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
   • Thin seedlings to 6 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation.
   • Harvest cilantro leaves when plants reach around 6 inches tall. Regular harvesting encourages bushier growth.
   • For coriander seeds, allow plants to flower and form seeds. Once seeds turn brown and dry, cut seed heads and place them in a paper bag to finish drying. Store seeds in an airtight container.

Happy gardening! 🌿
