Organic Caribe Cilantro Dense, dark green bunches of Caribe's aromatic leaves are growing in our garden every month of the year. We select for late bolting, slight stems and high vigor as well as cold hardiness. Cilantro sown in September consistently overwinters for us here in the Finger Lakes yielding the sweetest, most tender cilantro as soon as the snows melt. Indeed, cilantro grows best for us in the cool months and to get high quality cilantro throughout the summer we successively sow every three weeks. To encourage the innate bolt-resistance in our cilantro, only direct sow and never transplant your seed and be sure to offer ample, even water when it's dry and especially when it's hot.

Seeds to Always Direct Sow
Perfect Things to Plant in the Fall

Direct Sow Only: early spring through early fall, sow 1-2 seeds per inch ¼” deep in rows 12-18” apart. No need to thin. Sow every 2-3 weeks for continual harvest. Most flavorful & tender leaves are before bolting. Heat hastens bolting; cilantro is an ideal spring & fall crop. Young plants often overwinter with sweet spring re-growth.
Sowing Date: As soon as soil may be worked Seed Depth: 1/2 inch Days to Germination: 7-10 Days to Maturity: 21 days to baby, 50-55 full size Plant spacing after thinning: 1-2 inches Height: 12 inches
