Instructions
- Remove the soil and seeds packet. Leave the clay pebbles at the bottom and fill with soil.
- Open the seeds packet, sprinkle a few seeds on top of the soil and slightly cover the seeds until half centimeter.
- Keep the soil moisten but not over-watering (a bottle spray works well).
- Cover with a plastic bag and set in a warm place with natural light but without direct sun.
- Check daily if the soil is moisten. When the seeds germinate (7-14 days), remove the plastic bag and keep in a natural light spot.
- Add water when the soil appears to be dry. When the plants are mature they need water every day.
Cuidados e Dicas
- How long does it take to grow?
Cilantro can take between 4 to 6 months before you can harvest the leaves.
- Will it grow back?
Cilantro has a life cycle of over two years; however, after harvesting all the leaves, you should replace the soil and plant more seeds.
- How often should I water?
Cilantro likes moist soil, but not soggy. Check with your finger in the soil: if it feels dry, water near the soil with about a coffee cup's worth. In summer, it requires more regular watering. Remember that the Grow Cork has no drainage hole, and if it retains too much water at the bottom, it could harm the plant.
- Should I place it outside or transfer it to a pot?
Our kits are designed for indoor use, in a location with light and direct sunlight, but they can also be placed outdoors. It is not necessary to transfer to a pot; the Grow Cork has enough space for cilantro to grow.
- Are there whiteflies on the leaves?
Your plant is infested with whiteflies. To combat this, you can dissolve 1 teaspoon of soap flakes and add 5 drops of oil to half a liter of warm water, then place it in a spray bottle. Spray until the whiteflies are well covered. You can also use neem oil, which is a natural insect repellent.
