Germination tips for microgreens
- •Use only whole coriander seeds — split seeds will not germinate.
- •No pre-soaking required; coriander seeds absorb moisture from cocopeat.
- •Coriander germinates slowly — expect visible sprouts only on day 4-5, not day 1-2.
- •Keep blackout cover for 3-4 days; coriander needs darkness to establish roots first.
- •Bottom water from day 5 — coriander is sensitive to overwatering on leaves.
- •Thin germination is normal for coriander; sow slightly denser than other varieties.
- •Harvest at 10-14 days when cotyledons are fully open for peak dhaniya aroma.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do coriander seeds need soaking before sowing?
No. Whole coriander seeds absorb moisture from damp cocopeat. Important: always use whole coriander seeds — split or ground coriander will not germinate. Sow dry and keep covered for 3-4 days.
Why is my coriander germination slow?
Coriander is a naturally slow germinator — expect visible sprouts only on day 4-5, not day 1-2 like radish or mustard. This is normal. Patience is key; maintain blackout for 3-4 days and ensure cocopeat stays moist.
How long do coriander microgreens take to grow?
Coriander microgreens take 10-14 days from sowing to harvest — longer than most varieties. The wait is worth it for the fresh, fragrant aroma that is stronger than mature coriander leaves.
