Growing coriander at home is a simple and rewarding process, especially when you use a hydroponic method — that is, growing it in just water, without soil. This clean and efficient technique can be ideal for anyone interested in gardening, especially those with limited space or those who want to enjoy fresh herbs with minimal fuss.
In this guide, you’ll learn the straightforward steps to cultivate coriander in your own home using just water, ensuring you’ll always have this fragrant, flavorful herb on hand for your culinary creations.
Choosing and Preparing Coriander Seeds
1. Select high-quality coriander seeds. For best results, choose seeds labeled for sprouting or organic seeds, as some seeds may be treated with fungicides that inhibit germination.
2. Soak the seeds. Place the coriander seeds in a bowl of water and let them soak for 24 to 48 hours. This will soften the outer layer and encourage germination.
