Indoor Start

Cilantro does not transplant well
Direct Sow
Direct sow in early spring though late summer
Plant 3-4 seeds every 4-6"
Thin seedlings to 1 every 4-6" after 1-2" of growth
Harvest
Harvest leaves as needed
Plant seeds every week for continuous seasonal harvest

Tips
Bolting is common in summer heat
Container growing, moving to shade or inside, slows bolting
When it does bolt, leave it in the garden. It will produce seeds and attract pollinators
