Cilantro - Slow-Bolting Coriander Seeds - Organic

Plant seeds directly into the garden in the spring after the danger of frost has passed. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 60-80°F. Or, start seed indoors 3-4 weeks before transplanting into the garden. Transplant to the garden 1-2 weeks after your average last frost date. Transplant carefully as cilantro is sensitive to transplant shock. For a continual harvest of leaves, make additional plantings every 3 weeks except during the hottest part of the summer. Cilantro tends to flower and go to seed quickly, especially when soil temperature is above 75 °F. Mulch to keep the soil cool.
