Growing cilantro, celery and garlic chives at home: one little trick for fast sprouting, vigorous growth, and ever more luxuriant plants!

How to grow cilantro: methods and tips

Cilantro is loved by many people for its distinctive aroma, and adding a little to beef noodles makes them even tastier. It is said that cilantro is even more expensive now. So just grow some yourself. The seeds are easy to find; prepare fresh cilantro seeds, and you can first use a glass bottle or the bottom of a bowl to rub the round seeds apart into two halves.

You can soak them in water first to make splitting easier, then put them in the refrigerator to chill for two days. After that, plant them and they will sprout especially fast, coming up evenly, with little green seedlings all popping out.

Cilantro likes plenty of sunlight and fertile potting soil. Later on, give it more sun and more fertilized water, and it will grow lush and green with lots of thick, abundant leaves. Once you have eaten it all, just sow more.

How to grow garlic chives: methods and tips

Garlic chives are also one of the vegetables we eat often. One advantage of growing garlic chives is that after you harvest one round, you can keep harvesting more. Many gardening friends grow garlic chives from roots, but you can actually grow them from seed too. The only thing is that before sowing you must pre-sprout the seeds: first soak the seeds in 40°C warm water for ten hours, then put them in a wet paper towel and mist them daily to keep them moist.

Once the seeds show little white sprouts, you can sow them in the pot. Sprouting will speed up a lot, and more seedlings will come up.

Although garlic chives grow slowly at first, later on give them more sun, put them in a ventilated spot, and add plenty of base fertilizer, such as chicken manure fertilizer or plant ash, and they will grow especially fast, with broad, large leaves.

How to grow celery: methods and tips

Celery is rich in carbohydrates, vitamins, calcium and so on, and it is said to help lower blood pressure too, so you can grow celery at home yourself. When sowing celery, you also need to pre-sprout first: soak the seeds in clean water for 24 hours so they absorb enough water, then rub and wash them several times, let them dry a little, and put them in a container.

Cover with a wet towel, rinse the seeds once a day, and once they show white sprouts you can sow them. This way they sprout very quickly.

To grow celery, first of all keep the light plentiful and water it often with fertilized water, and it will grow bigger and more luxuriant.
