This is how direct sowing succeeds

Since coriander seeds do not expect any tropical temperatures for germination, there is nothing against sowing from April. If the weather conditions indicate that no more ground frost is to be expected, you can start. Choose a sunny patch as its location, whose soil is loose, humus and lime-poor. Proper sowing requires careful soil preparation. How to do it right:

Within 14-21 days the germination sets in, depending on the prevailing temperatures. If the sowing was very slow, the seedlings are thinned in May from a stature height of 5-10 centimeters to a planting distance of at least 20 centimeters.

So sowing of coriander succeeds behind glass

In the sheltered ambience of the house or winter garden, the planting of coriander is possible all year round. In order for the spice plant to start the gardening season with an advantageous growth advantage, February and March are recommended. So sowing runs smoothly:

A cover made of glass or transparent film creates a conducive moist-warm microclimate in the seed hopper. So that no mold forms, the hood is ventilated daily. The sowing may in the following time neither dry out, nor swim in the water. Under these ideal conditions, the first seed leaves emerge from the seeds within a week. In May, the young coriander are planted in the bed or the pot.
