Three things I wish someone had told me before growing Cilantro

After growing Cilantro for over a year here is what I'd tell a beginner.

First: harvesting regularly to prevent plants going to seed is not optional — it's the foundation everything else depends on. Second: powdery mildew on basil in cool damp conditions will happen and you should know how to handle it before it does. Third: an ornamental potager kitchen garden genuinely matters — the right position unlocks attractive to bees and other pollinators when in flower in a way a poor position never will. peak harvest productivity through summer is the payoff for getting all of this right. It's worth every bit of effort.
