Frequently Asked Questions
Learn about cilantro seed preparation, preventing premature flowering, and harvesting fresh coriander leaves.
Should cilantro seeds be crushed before planting?
A coriander fruit, often sold as a seed, commonly contains two individual seeds. Gently splitting the fruit into its two halves may help water reach the seeds, but crushing them into powder will damage the planting material. Sow intact fruits or carefully separated halves according to the seed supplier's instructions, and avoid damaging the seeds.
Why does cilantro flower too early, and how can I delay it?
Cilantro can bolt, or produce a flower stalk prematurely, when exposed to high temperatures, long days, or other environmental stress. To encourage a longer leaf harvest, sow during cooler weather, maintain consistent soil moisture, and provide afternoon shade in hot conditions. Succession sowing can help replace plants that begin flowering.
Can cilantro leaves be harvested more than once from the same plant?
Yes. Once a cilantro plant has developed sufficient foliage, you can harvest outer leaves and leafy stems while leaving enough healthy growth for the plant to continue developing. Avoid removing too much foliage at one time. For a steady supply of fresh leaves, sow small batches at intervals suited to your climate.
