How to grow coriander, coriander pictures

1. Seed selection and processing

It can be divided into two varieties: large grain and small grain. The larger ones have a lighter taste, but they grow fast and have a high yield. The small-grain variety has a stronger aroma, but the yield is lower. If you are eating it yourself, it is recommended to choose small pieces. When selecting seeds, choose those with full and healthy grains. Soak it in clean water for 24 hours before planting, so that the seed coat will be soaked and it can germinate faster.

2. Deep plowing of the soil

Although it does not have high requirements for the soil, it will naturally grow better if it has sufficient nutrients. You can spread an appropriate amount of farmyard manure and compound fertilizer on the land and deep plow it to make the soil more fertile and loose.

3. Direct sowing

After processing, you can spread the seeds on the surface, trying to spread them as evenly as possible. After spreading, cover it with a thin layer of fine soil or spread some straw. As long as the temperature is right, they will germinate in a week.

4. Time Seedling

After the seedlings germinate, they need to be thinned out again. The seedlings cannot grow too densely, and the distance between each plant should be more than one centimeter. Don’t thin out the seedlings too early. Wait until the seedlings grow a little bigger. This way, the thinned out seeds will not be wasted and can be eaten directly.

5. Post-management

After thinning out the seedlings, you can apply fertilizer and combine it with watering. Just choose nitrogen fertilizer, which can dilute the fertilizer faster, so that the seedlings can absorb nutrients faster and grow better. And pay attention to observe frequently and remove weeds in time when you find them.
