  • Direct seeding is recommended. Sow 1/4" deep and 1/4-1/2" apart. Rows should be at least 30" apart. Cilantro can bolt with too much heat. A cool, sunny location is recommended. Seeds are encased and should be crushed to separate the two seeds within. Soak for 24 hours prior to sowing to increase germination rate. Do not skip either step as they both are vital to ensuring an increased germination rate.

  • Harvest cilantro leaves at any stage, the younger leaves having a crisper flavor. Seeds of the cilantro plant are known as coriander seeds and are used as a ground seasoning in many different dishes. Seeds for seasoning can be harvested after the plant has bolted and produced flowers.

  • Cilantro is best consumed fresh as much of its scent and flavor are lost in the drying process.
