How to Prune, Harvest, and Grow Dill in Containers

[@studentism]

thank you for being concise and incredibly informative. seven years later this is still the best vid i've found.

[@IRepko]

I got an aero garden and my dill was taking over the whole thing, thanks so much!

[@Balxandr]

Lol this is exactly why I came to this vid, guess that’s why they call it dill weed 😂

[@asiansheep5407]

Sameeee 💀

[@KimberlyKester-vn7bp]

Yes thank you! I'm not experienced much with gardening. So there has be a lot of research + trial and error. I just got a dill seedlings like 3 weeks ago. It didn’t have the flower bit on it when i got it. And when i seen the flowering start at the top. I was a little confused and unsure what to do. I didn’t want to mess up the plant to where it didn't grow for next year. But from my research, the only video's or info i found were a bit confusing on when and how to cut the flower bit off. So that you still get to use the dill for the rest of its season and it will still grow back to come back for next season. Ya'lls video is like one of the most understandable ones with a close up of it as well. Ya'll also helped up my pruning game as well! So thank you thank you thank you 💚😊

[@debbieventimiglia2216]

I planted the dill in the ground next to my tomatoes, to bring in pollinators, and I also planted .arigolds seeds around my tomatoes and peppers which are in full bloom to keep pest away, and I have not had any pest issues by doing thjs.

[@wesleysriffle]

This is the best video explanation I’ve found. Others don’t come in close and explain. Thanks!

[@omfug7148]

I love dill, and try to grow lot's of it in the summer, it freezes extremely well (tastes great, much better than drying.) Oddly enough, even though dill has a long tap root, I have successfully grown it in gallon pots on my balcony.

[@estelanunezchannel]

can you grow it from cuttings?

[@IsaacNewton1966]

@@estelanunezchannel I wouldn't waste the time. It is easily grown from seed.

[@burghman8000]

Im new to gardening and I didn't prune my dill. It grew high in a box planter and its all flowered and drying for seeds now. Should I take the seeds and store them until spring or just let the seeds fall off to grow next year or wipl ths seeds end up going to wasted that way and die oncs it snows? Idk much about herb gardeniglng like I said. Its fun and I can't wait until next year to olant more. I was also thinking of saving the seeds and growing the dill in the dirt in my yard. Making a small far of sorts and if so saving my seeds until spring? How many seeds should be saved (looks like i have thousands) and planted or just save all and plant all?

[@burghman8000]

Also have questions about other plants i have flowering and want to save seeds like coriander ty

[@Setsunako6587]

Pinch at the ELBOWS 😲!! Thanks for the vocab, fam 🥰

[@debbieventimiglia2216]

Dill is one of the herbs I planted this year I love how it smells in my garden, mine is over 6 feet tall and just now trying to flower

[@copout1405]

Would love for you to take a photo of that and share!

[@Leavemynamealoneyoutubeyadog]

No way

[@yenchu1237]

Wow! 6feet? I'd be happy if my dill can grow more than 5 inches

[@portiaholliday8741]

Initial planting tips would be nice.

[@DATSOCIETYSAYS]

We did the exact opposite, pruning all the side branches while letting the center grow. Now the plant is all gangly. Is there any way to fix this? Will new branches grow near where the pruned branches were? Can we replant the the stem deeper in the ground?

[@Trebbor1958]

Thank you for the video, I have a dill plant and I wasnt sure how to cut it to use it.... now I know..... :)

[@yhhhhuuu667ij]

I wasn't sure how to deal with the flowers. This was very helpful, thank you.

[@KimberlyKester-vn7bp]

Same! I didn't want to mess it up for next year but I also wanted to be able use the dill for as long as I can for the rest it's growing season this year. I'm fairly new to the whole gardening/ plant care thing. So I was a bit confused And didn't know what to do. I've also been struggling with my Duke blueberry plant as well. I got it on clearance on the same day as the dill 3-4 weeks ago. I read the care instructions that came with it just a bit confused on where to go from here and if I am doing it correctly. Since it looks like it's in one of it's dormant stages now and when I got it. And from my research it's kinda early for that.

[@AddLoveTM126]

Thanks A Million; for much needed, appreciative advice!👏❤️👑

[@tlee717]

This actually explains a lot as to why dill is growing all over my yard now after I planted the first plant last year. It seems more invasive than my horseradish

[@MystikalDawn]

Nice video! I grew dill last year for the first time but I didn't harvest it because it was just 1 plant and I grew it just to see how it would turn out. It turned out really well and this year I'm going to plant more and properly harvest them and dehydrate them for the winter months.

[@wind7bag68]

Can you use a sprig of dill to grow a dill plant or do you have to use seeds?

[@aaronhellinger8358]

They say to thin them down to one per foot, so i am surprised they grow fine with that many in a pot.

[@TheKristenGibson]

You want the flower heads if you were interested in pickling cucumbers like you said. For flavoring/spice I agree with the method you said.

[@gunslingorgunslingorsadf8150]

Can you cook with the flowers? Are they better, worse or different if so?

[@thefigtreeguy]

Thanks for this great video. Now I am going outside to snip the one flower that I saw growing yesterday.

[@charlescoker7752]

Can you plant dill in Nov. inside?

[@larryharvey7709]

Planted an entire raised bed this year. Already harvested once.

[@spyce1102]

Wow! I came to learn about the Dill but then I noticed her hands. Her hands are beautiful!

[@Ramen.and.Satie.]

Hi! Thank you very much for the video! I was wondering if you could please tell me how many dill plants I can transplant into my 6 inch pot? Thanks in advance! 🌱

[@gb2115]

I do not understand. Other channels say to thin the seeds 12-18 inches apart, and others don't seem to thin the seeds at all. I do not know if i should thin my dill seedlings.

[@marlenepowell1305]

I was given a piece of cut dill. I tried to grow roots putting it in water. It just wilted and died. Any advice please?

[@Happyplants]

hi how many seeds od dill should i sow in 8 inch pot.

[@tropicalterrarium1742]

I mass seed them. Some people space them, some people thin them out, I personally let nature take its course with mass seeding. They support eachother while growing up. They like to be watered more than other herbs I have noticed

[@tropicalterrarium1742]

dont mass them too much otherwise it would be a waste of seeds

[@reubenlouismusic]

Can dill be grown from cuttings?

[@joshuamoore24_7]

Thanks for the info video, I am growing some from seeds I bought from Atwoods.🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🥒🥒🥒🥒🥒🥒

[@jeansahar]

Thanks for the informative video, i have dill in pots and in beds.. how often do you fertilize and what fertilizer do you use?

[@ThePatioGardeners]

We add fresh compost to amend the soil whenever we plant new dill.

[@debbieventimiglia2216]

I've already harvested the dill, dried them in bundles inside, and the mature heads I put in paper bags to dry them and allow the seeds to drop in bag, how I got my dill to grow 6 feet tall us, I started them indoors as a seed, and fed them Alaska fish emulsion🙄

[@yhhhhuuu667ij]

Thanks for the tip! I wasn't sure what to do with the flowers.

[@chibobird482]

What do you do if the dill looks scrawny and small? I’ve started some from seed but they all just look so small and scraggly.

[@EmmaDeer]

Chibo Bird just keep going! They grow pretty quickly. Mine looked like they were going to die but I stuck with them and now they’re a foot tall.

[@fernandojvalencia8151]

You need to feed it with enriched quality soil. My dill is about 3 feet tall. We love it!!

[@cao0323]

I wonder if I have a different type of dill because my plant does not have stalks that are that thick :(

[@milenamichaelidis7900]

What do I do with the flowers once I snip them?

[@ThePatioGardeners]

You can eat them, use them for pickling, compost them, or throw them away.

[@averythebright]

Awesome, thanks guys!

[@lindariddell4126]

My dill always dries and dies. I wonder how much sun? Where to plant it?

[@maunzerle59]

I have the same problem😢

[@QueenLuzun]

Do u wash ur dill

[@benh2156]

Thanks for the video y'all i appreciate it!

[@sebastianmay9605]

This was so useful! 🙏🏼

[@hooksandneedlescrochet4631]

another great video 😃

[@honeybee2356]

Thanks!🌿

[@aceboogie711]

what do lady bugs eat?

[@TShirtAndReeboks]

Aphids

[@spiritammahlawrence339]

Really awesome

[@ZE308AC]

I could not grow dill and a lot of people say once you grow dill you will never sow dill again or something like that

[@ZE308AC]

My dill will grow like 1 inch and then it either dies or the snails eat it

[@wiggiag]

Love the videos

[@spiritammahlawrence339]

Thanks

[@shannonlambert1240]

thank you for your information

[@missourigirl4101]

Great video. Thx

[@dimitra3574]

I just harvest the hole plant before I saw this video. 😣🤦‍♀️ Can I save the plant somehow?? I should first see the video and then do it after the right way. I'm so sorry for the plant. 🌿😞

[@bsharies]

I ATE ONE TODAY FRESH FROM OUT OF THE GROUND

[@TheBullOfLewisham]

Dill, is a GREAT herb. Respect Dill, cherish Dill. BuLL

[@bristonknight9315]

My number one herb. I wish I could find a bushy variety of it I saw 15 years ago I don't remember where, but it was a farm growing herbs and tomatoes for rich clients expecting produce to be delivered to the house. All my search on internet was unsucsesslul... I would appreciate if someone gave me a clue where I can buy a bushy variety of dill. I'm interested in plants that have a rich foliage.

[@JosephineSchwartz]

👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻thanks 😀

[@sdqsdq6274]

this herb is so high in calcium

[@stephaniehallstrom6093]

My grandmother used the flower in her jars of dill!! You threw it out. Why?

[@time2cclear]

i put dill in boiled potatoes with butter .... mmmmm

[@jamieschmalenberger6872]

So helpful! Thank you!!

[@_yukey_]

he kinda sounds like kermit

[@missmaam792]

Aphids is not pronounced "aff ids" as heard @0:30. Yikes for the "expert". And one foot is called "tall"? Who knew?

[@MyREDTAIL]

Pinch them off like you do your Parsley Plants I guess.

[@johnnykurplutzo6789]

Yup it's tall, so says building inspector from City Hall to 😒

[@Benny188]

“Mhm”

[@SteveSmekar-ll6ln]

It would be easier to determine how to harvest the dill, if you ACTUALLY harvested it.

[@Alphabear89]

This guys voice...

[@elizabethtrainer9732]

Is this video geared toward 3rd grader's?

[@vikithomasson7772]

Elizabeth Trainer the video answered my questions, so maybe?

[@sallysmith7242]

I have more questions so I guess I’d like a pre-school version.

[@daybyday6263]

Amazing how rude people can be now days....

[@PatPirrie1]

Maybe Elizabeth should go back to third grade to learn they are called 3rd "graders" not 3rd "grader's." A dumb comment with bad grammar always makes you sound even dumber.

[@lyndaellison9832]

[@Jaiven]

"Uuuuuuurb".

[@bbybeabee594]

Lol these things grow every where in my backyard as a weed its kinda annoying

[@Nebel705]

Bruh just eat the dill. Heh

[@fenixdesigns]

Well, it *_is_* called dillWEED for a reason!!

[@CikaDraza]

The Erbbbbbbb is killing my ears lol

[@tegoblue]

The lady dill grower has beautiful hands and long fingers. I wonder if she is psychic.

[@jackxthexreaper736]

The guy holding the camera is annoying... “mmhmm.. ok... yeah... mmhmm... yep... ok” dude! Shut it! Sorry to be rude but jeezus!

[@jeremykresky5040]

She said a…fid I quit

[@gsweater5544]

So tiny and stunted. Those plants are not healthy at all.

[@mayaportland8805]

lady, learn to use few focused sentences instead of repeating same thing in a million of ways.

[@stevemack60]

It's a Herb not an Erb!!! Pronounce the H, it is not silent unless you are French!!

[@amberanschuetz8129]

Steve Mackins The ‘h’ is silent in American English.

[@pennyhamilton7635]

Who cares how they say it its about the herb not how you say the word. Nit picker geese. Give us all a break.

[@JR6191947]

In Canada it is an " Erb"

[@jorgedefoe1]

It's a lost cause assling alf wit americans about their H's in erbs. When you consider that they do actually say H with eaps of other words like orses ives ouses ills ...etc etc... but they still cant see how ostile and egemonic their country is in the world today.

[@Kitasstrophy]

This is a weird and incorrect statement.
