💡 Producer's Tips

Grow in pots – All these herbs thrive in containers on a balcony or terrace
Harvest regularly – The more you cut, the more they produce (except coriander which bolts quickly)
Staggered sowing – Coriander and dill: sow every 2-3 weeks for continuous harvest
Preserve your harvests – Freeze basil in olive oil, dry dill and parsley
Let it flower – Dill and coriander attract beneficial insects (ladybugs, parasitoid wasps)
Perennial chives – Divide and share with your gardening neighbors!
