Harvest

When to sow: March – September

Spacing: 20 x 7cm

Coriander tips: Coriander does best when direct-sown, as it does not like to have its roots disturbed. Sow outdoors from May in shallow drills 20cm apart and thin to final spacing.
For an early crop seeds can be sown in modules or pots indoors from March and planted out in May.
For an autumn/winter crop sow in September. . Always keep coriander well-watered to avoid premature bolting.
