Sowing Instruction
A few weeks before the last frost sow 13-16 seeds in a 5-6 inch pot. Water the seeds and in 7-10 they should germinate. You can transplant the whole pot outside 2 weeks after the last frost.
Cilantro requires a well-draining soil. Also make sure that the soil stays moist. You can put mulch around the plant. This will ensure that the moisture stays in the soil.
