Recommended Growing Medium & Compost

Plant in fertile, well-drained soil enriched with well-decomposed compost. Coriander prefers soil that retains moisture while allowing excess water to drain away.

When repotting, use a quality herb or vegetable potting mix enriched with compost and organic matter.

Recommended Fertiliser

Apply a balanced herb or vegetable fertiliser during active growth. Avoid excessive fertilisation, particularly high nitrogen applications, as this can encourage excessive leafy growth. Always follow the manufacturer's recommended application rate.

Growing Conditions

• ☀️ Light: Full sun to partial shade
• 💧 Water: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged
