HOW TO GROW PARSLEY FROM SEEDS

CARE AFTER GERMINATION OF  PARSLEY

Well-draining soil with a high concentration of organic matter is ideal for growing parsley. Pick a spot that gets full sun (6 to 8 hours of sunlight). The parsley will sprout in approximately three weeks if you choose a weed-free area. You can plant radish seeds in the gaps between parsley seeds. Sprouting and growth of radishes will precede the appearance of parsley, and radishes will mark the row. Maintain sufficient moisture in parsley plants throughout the summer, especially when it's hot. Use a light mulch around the plants to conserve water.
