Growing Notes

Start indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring. Sow seeds ¼ inch deep. Parsley is slow to germinate (2–6 weeks) — soak seeds overnight to speed germination. Thin to 6–8 inches apart in full sun to part shade. Keep soil consistently moist. Harvest outer stems regularly to encourage new growth. Self-seeds freely. 70 days.
