How to plant coriander seeds

It takes about 40-60 days from planting to harvesting coriander seeds. In addition, coriander seeds are generally harvested in summer. Moreover, coriander seeds have a hard outer shell. If they are sown directly, the germination rate of coriander seeds will be low, so you need to rub off the shell first.

The common practice is to soak the seeds in warm water for 10 hours, and then the shell can be easily pressed open. Generally speaking, seeds can be sown and planted in spring, summer and autumn, and seedlings will emerge in about 10 days.

Coriander seed sowing time

Coriander can be sown all year round. The normal sowing time is March-April and August-September, because the temperature suitable for its growth is between 15-20 degrees. It is difficult to germinate below 15 degrees, and above 20 degrees will also affect the quality. If the temperature is not controlled in summer, there will be almost no harvest.

Coriander seed planting method

When planting coriander, you should choose a slightly shady place. The soil you choose should be rich in organic matter and have strong drainage and irrigation capabilities. After selecting the plot, you should sprinkle an appropriate amount of farmyard manure, and pay attention to turning the soil once to remove debris, weeds, etc. in the plot to ensure that the plot is loose and fertile.
