Sowing & Growing
Parsley can be tricky to germinate, but can be sown year round for indoor cultivation. For outdoor cultivation sow thinly Mar-Jul where they are to crop, 10mm deep, into finely prepared moist well-drained soil which has been watered in drills 30cm apart. Germination is normally 14-21 days but can take up to 40 days. When large enough to handle thin to 20cm spacing.
For indoor use sow seed 2mm deep into small pots of compost, cover. Water well and place in a warm positions 18-21°C. Keep out of direct sunlight until germination occurs. Uncover once germination has occurred and grow on to maturity on a light windowsill.
Water seedlings well until established, too little water will encourage Parsley to flower early. Cloche protection allows year round harvest. Once established easy to care for. Can be improved with a good quality liquid feed.
Pick a few leaves from the outside of the plant as required. Cut and come again variety. This Biennial will require replacing after the second season once it flowers and produces seed.

I have just bought all my new seeds for next year’s vegetables after having such great results this year. Budget seeds are so helpful, I’m a newbie in the veg growing world and they have been helpful in choosing the best seeds to start with etc. also much cheaper than elsewhere so if I do mess up in the future it isn’t costing me so much. I thoroughly recommend Budget Seeds for all your veg and flower seeds.
