Germination typically takes 7 to 14 days, depending on soil temperature and moisture levels.
Yes, by sowing seeds every 4 weeks indoors on a windowsill, you can achieve a continuous supply. Outdoor crops may need protection in winter.
Coriander prefers well-drained soil. For outdoor planting, ensure the soil is fine and crumbly. For indoor pots, use a free-draining compost.
Bolting is often triggered by heat stress or inconsistent watering. Keeping the soil consistently moist and providing some shade during hot spells can help prevent this.
Harvest young leaves as needed by picking just a few from each plant. This encourages the plant to continue producing more foliage.
Excess coriander can be dried, though it loses some flavor. It can also be frozen in ice cube trays with water or oil for later use in cooking.
Each packet contains approximately 50 coriander seeds.
Ensure seeds are sown at the correct depth (1cm/0.5in) and the soil is kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Check if seeds are past their viability date.
Ensure consistent watering, especially during dry periods. Avoid sowing in excessively hot weather. Provide some shade during peak heat if possible.
This can indicate overwatering or poor drainage. Ensure pots have drainage holes and the soil is not saturated. It may also indicate a lack of nutrients if the soil is old; consider a light feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
Wash off aphids with a strong jet of water. For persistent infestations, use an insecticidal soap, ensuring it is safe for edible plants.
