Sowing

Timing: Plant coriander seeds directly in the garden during the cooler months of spring or autumn. In hot climates, sow them in late summer or early autumn for a fall crop.
Soil: Choose well-draining, fertile soil with a pH around 6.2 to 6.8. Work in organic matter if the soil lacks nutrients.
Planting: Sow the seeds directly into the ground, about 1/4 inch deep, and space them 6 to 8 inches apart in rows or scatter them for a more natural growth pattern.
Sunlight: Coriander prefers partial shade in hot climates but requires full sun in cooler regions.
Watering: Ensure consistent moisture by watering regularly, but avoid waterlogging.
Germination and Thinning: Seeds typically germinate within 7 to 20 days. Once seedlings reach a few inches in height, thin them to maintain proper spacing for healthy growth.
Harvesting: Harvest coriander leaves (cilantro) when they reach the desired size. To collect coriander seeds, wait for the plant to bolt and produce flowers. Harvest the seeds when they turn brown and begin to dry on the plant.
