Hi mate, are you buying seeds in bulk from shop or from seed supplier? just wondering if the bulk ones would be viable to grow. We only get a small amount from seed suppliers. Good informative video again mate and I love the mushroom tray idea, I use salad tubs from supermarket as propagation tops, they work brilliant getting seeds started and preventing the surface compost drying out in greenhouse. cheers.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

I use seeds that are usually sold for cooking, they can be found in any Asian grocery store

[@cameronmac338]

@@MyFamilyGarden Thank you, I shall do the same.

[@gazoakleychef]

that cloth technique !!!! thank you so much

[@MyFamilyGarden]

Mum's a total genius

Older ladies in every culture have so much wonderful tips we can all learn from 😊. Wonderful

[@MsFlipper1969]

From a Yorkshire lass to a Yorkshire lad, thank you. Coriander is my all time favourite herb

[@MarkHebblewhite]

What a brilliant video buddy. Very interesting and well explained. Thank you.

[@westlondongardener4476]

Pre-soaking is the secret! Thank you 😊😊

[@MyFamilyGarden]

And keeping them moist

[@constantinaolstedt]

Oh my kids will take this idea and run with it...right now they are in a taco mania. Imagine the pride when sprinkling their own coriander on the meal they just made for the family 🌱🤩🌿 thanks from Stockholm Sweden 🤗

[@MyFamilyGarden]

That will be fantastic, it's one of the main reasons I grow food is so my kids have that connection

[@adailydaughter6196]

Aww bless them 😍

[@inashamsia]

Lovely! I can smell the coriander shoots as you were fluffing them up 😂. Salam everyone!

[@MyFamilyGarden]

Walaikum salaam, that's the best thing about fresh coriander

[@lyndascott7920]

Excellent advice, thank you! I have failed multiple times trying to grow coriander, inshallah this time it will flourish!

[@MyFamilyGarden]

Good luck, I hope it works for you

[@Scott3387]

If you get a big plant bolting, you can pull it and use the roots as well (most people think you can only use the leaves and seeds). Very popular for SEA cooking, especially Thai, can't make a traditional green curry paste without it. It has a very powerful flavour.

[@kathynix6552]

In Indonesia too

[@farakhalemdar9862]

What a brilliant video. So intelligently explained. Thank you.

[@LiliansGardens]

Thanks for this. I grow my coriander this way after the split I just like seeing what other s say. thanks for sharing.

Great tips here, which I am going to try. Not throwing anymore mushroom trays away either! Thanks

Subbed. Another great video. I've been wasting so much time messing about growing this stuff... old ways are the best sometimes. 👌

Fab! I'm looking forward to giving this a go. I've not had too much luck with coriander before 👍🏽

[@foziahramli3001]

Mee too..tried few times always failed!!

Hopefully this method should work for you both

[@1967SJH]

Great advice as ever. Your tips and ideas are so helpful.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

You're very welcome

[@carolewilson551]

Excellent tip! Seen lots of ways to sow coriander but this makes most sense, thanks! Now, which scarf am I gonna sacrifice....hmmm? :-)

[@MyFamilyGarden]

So glad you like it, an olt dish towel would work well, or an old t-shirt, i like the use of cotton

[@julieburgin2060]

Don't sacrifice your scarf! I've using one of those re-usable nylon mesh bags they sell in supermarkets to carry loose fruit n veg home in, they cost about 25p (Top tip....you can also use one for washing your delicates in , in the washing machine!)

[@carolewilson551]

Ha ha, thanks but an old pillowcase corner has worked just fine.

[@monaraahmed7193]

👍👍👍

[@karentrumper56]

Thank you for the video very interesting, i am hit and miss with coriander so will be trying the way you have shown , so glad i found your channel i love the way you garden as some of the T V gardening show do not show you how to garden they show you how to spend lots of money witch i do not have thanks

[@MyFamilyGarden]

I'm with you on that, i don't have money to waste and pretty much live month to month so have to make every penny count

[@welsh_vegan_allotment_holder]

Good tips. I like that the advice you give is often new to info (to me at least!) I've already got some coriander started but am due to get another batch started so will try your soaking method. Thanks and take care

[@MyFamilyGarden]

This is a very traditional way of sprouting seeds, so it's all mum's knowledgeable being passed on

[@mikeross4]

Mothin, what an excellent video, I wish I had seen it last year! Thank you for the germination advice, I will certainly try that.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

It's a brilliant way to get a lot of seeds germinated

[@Iskandar64]

I have never successfully grown Coriander, I will try your way, or is it your Mum’s? Same goes for much else like chillis. My father had a garden like yours, a very long strip at the back of a semi detached house in South Wales. We kept chickens and grew a huge amount of our own food, it was like the early 70s Good Life comedy. Now I have a semi detached house in South London and I have been looking for a blog on how to garden in that particular British way with our variable British climate. And I think you have it, as I have binge watched loads of yours videos and I think they are brilliant. Wishing you well.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

Sadly i can't claim credit for this one, it all belongs to mum, to be honest most of my veg growing come from her. That's a really kind compliment thank you. We're quite lucky being on a coner plot means we have a double garden so can fit a fair amount in

Thanks for the tips I've not been successful with coriander it always bolted. Can you do a video on the taro bulbs mine always rot.

[@PaulSlater]

Thank you so much for this. I absolutely love coriander and have failed miserably each times I’ve tried to grow it. Off to get some seeds from the cupboard and soak them in a damp cloth.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

You are so welcome! Mum's advice always works. Soak them for a day or two then tie in the cloth and keep warm

[@PaulSlater]

@@MyFamilyGarden oh right. I’ve wrapped some in a damp cloth and put in a plastic pot in the airing cupboard - best warmth they’ll get here. You’re right though, Mums always know best :)

[@ivahihopeful]

Loved this! Of course I should’ve been sowing so much more at a time! Why didn’t I think of that?

[@MyFamilyGarden]

I wish I could take credit for it but it's mum's techniques lol

[@stevealderson4268]

My coriander crop has been really poor this year nothing germinated!!!! I’m off to try your technique and see if that works better. Also like your idea of letting some bolt and keeping seeds for next year! What’s the latest I could sow it in the Uk? We use a lot as well and want a good supply for as long as possible! Cheers

[@MyFamilyGarden]

I keep a steady sowing every 4 to 6 weeks so we have steady harvests and i keep sowing well into september

Thankyou! Maranatha

[@laliadventure7953]

Thank you.

[@chriscrookson8524]

Since I started soaking my seeds, I've a had far more success but I'll have to try the scarf method! Thanks Mothin!

[@MyFamilyGarden]

It's mums little trick, never failed

[@chriscrookson8524]

You need to let us in on all her gardening secrets! 😄✌

[@arlenerodrigues6835]

Will definitely try the scarf. I've soaked in a sealed plastic tub before but the seeds went mouldy, no air getting through I guess so the scarf makes prefect sense.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

Lack of airflow is definitely a problem

[@pashabhai9891]

Jazakallah khair 👍🏻

[@zkm457]

Assalam a laikum. I came across your channel just by chance and am so glad that I did! The fact that you're uk based really helps as it's hard trying to get the right information for the climate that you're living in. I've tried growing coriander before but haven't had major success but will definitely try this technique. A few questions: How long do you soak the coriander before putting it in the cloth? I'm in the North West, is it possible to grow coriander outside now or is it too late? Am I better off growing on an inside window sill in this weather? We've had lots of rain this year! Looking forward to your advice....JazakAllah

How do you water the seedlings so that they don’t collapse into the soil?

[@MyFamilyGarden]

What have you got in mind?

[@tahliabarnard8180]

Thank you, I will be trying this. I find that I usually get two seedlings come up out of each seed, occasionally three, so I spend ages thinning them out.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

The hard part we see is the casing like a pod, the actual seeds are inside so there are normally 2/3/4 seeds inside

[@tahliabarnard8180]

@@MyFamilyGarden Ah thank you!

[@Ann-bm5qg]

Thanks for the information. Just one thing you left out was how often and how much to water coriander and that’s vital to know.

[@craigfusco405]

Nice

[@MyFamilyGarden]

Thanks

[@SeoJun-Sara97]

I tried growing coriander from seeds before. I planted them directly into the pot. They did produce baby coriander but it never could grow more than 3 in...so now I am going to try your way.

[@MyFamilyGarden]

It needs a fertile soil and a bit of warmth to grow fast

[@unclejameel]

Great video. I have five coriander plants. How many would you recommend planting in a similar sized pot to in your video?

[@saleem801]

Would coriander survive the winter outdoors?

[@loicchasseray]

Should I leave the cloth in the dark or in the light?

[@kayejust]

hi, should i do the same with the small seeds that they sell in packets as you've done it with the full seed like you have? So the packs you buy at Wicks or other garden centres is not the full round one that you have...

[@MyFamilyGarden]

you can still use this method even with those seeds

[@Worldwithoutboarders]

I found, to sow small pots 4 weeks apart. Use what you can but if not, let it flower until brown and harvest the seeds for next year. Store seeds in a paper bag for next year.

[@pingpong9656]

Do you hang the seeds in the damp cloth or just leave it on the counter? Seems like a really clever and simple way of doing it!
