What to do if the coriander seedlings grow too long

What does leggy coriander seedlings look like?

When coriander seedlings are growing, they often grow too tall due to improper management, causing them to grow too short and look wilted and lifeless. In serious cases, they can also grow poorly and fail to develop normally.

Reasons for the leggy growth of coriander seedlings

1. When planting coriander seedlings, if they are planted too densely, they will grow too tall, resulting in a lack of good ventilation during subsequent growth, and the nutrients will also be uneven.

2. In fact, the most obvious reason for the leggy growth of coriander seedlings is the lack of light. It may be because they have been in a dark environment for a long time, or other plants may have blocked the sunlight, causing them to grow leggy.

3. The excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer causes the coriander seedlings to grow too tall. Applying excessive nitrogen fertilizer before they grow up will not only cause them to grow too tall, but will also affect their subsequent growth and development.

How to deal with leggy coriander seedlings

1. When the coriander seedlings begin to grow too tall, they must be placed in a place with sufficient light, and some poorly growing seedlings must be removed. The ventilation environment should be increased and watering should be reduced.

2. Coriander seedlings generally do not have a very high demand for fertilizer, and fertilization should be done evenly. Do not apply nitrogen fertilizer exclusively, otherwise it will easily cause excessive growth and affect its growth and development.

3. If the coriander seedlings grow too tall, you can consider replanting them. When planting, you must have a reasonable planting density and good fertilizer and water management.
