Germination Guide
Direct sow seeds where plants will mature, as cilantro develops a deep taproot that dislikes transplanting. Sow seeds 1/4–1/2 inch deep in moist, well-prepared soil. Keep the soil evenly moist during germination, which usually occurs within 7–21 days. For continuous harvests, sow additional seeds every 2–3 weeks during cool weather.
Plant Care Tips
Grow in full sun during cool seasons or provide light afternoon shade in warmer climates to help delay bolting. Harvest outer leaves regularly to encourage fresh growth while leaving the center of the plant intact. Allow selected plants to flower if you wish to collect coriander seeds or support pollinators in your garden.
Harvest Information
Begin harvesting fresh cilantro leaves once plants reach 4–6 inches tall. Snip outer stems as needed while allowing the plant to continue producing new foliage. For coriander, allow flowers to mature and harvest seed heads after they become dry and light brown.
