Before sowing, rub the seeds in between the palms of your hands to split them open and sprinkle uniformly on the soil surface and cover with a light layer of soil.
Water the seed bed immediately after sowing with a light shower using a watering can so as not to dislodge any seeds.
Keep the growing medium moist at all times by watering/misting it daily.
The soil bed or container needs to be protected from rain and direct harsh sunlight at all times for a good growth.
Caring
The coriander seeds will start germinating 6 - 8 days after sowing and baby coriander plants will be visible in 10-15 days.
Give your coriander saplings partial sunlight of up to 4 hours in summers and full day of sunlight in winters.
Water every day either with a can or sprinkler system in outdoor spaces.
Your coriander should be good for harvesting after approximately 30 days from sowing.
Cut the plant 1 inch above the soil surface using a scissor and leave the root system, untouched for next harvesting. The same plant can be harvested 2-3 times every 20-25 days.
Common Problems
Why are my coriander seeds not germinating? Unfavourable growing conditions like soil that is not well drained, over or under-watering, very cold temperatures will all result in failure of germination. Also, do not forget to split the coriander seeds before sowing them. Splitting the seeds will help in germination. Why are my coriander leaves turning yellow? Insufficient sunlight, lack of nitrogen, under-watering, over-watering or a combination of these could be the reason behind yellowing of your coriander leaves. Coriander leaves are turning brown Excess watering and poorly drained soil can lead to browning of coriander leaves. Make sure you do not over water your coriander plant and use a well-drained soil.
