You shouldn’t think of August exclusively as a time for harvesting. This month you can still plant some crops – dill is one of them.
But at the same time, you should know a few tricks – only in this case the greens will turn out lush and fragrant.
Preparing the seeds
Because dill seeds contain essential oils, they can take a long time to germinate. But this process can be accelerated by preparation.
Soak the dill seeds in a container with water for two days. The liquid should be changed every eight hours.
As a result, the first shoots will appear after about six days.
Correct planting
Choose a suitable place for the bed, fertilize, loosen and moisten the soil. Use humus or cow manure to enrich the soil to make it looser and improve drainage, add sand.
Plant the seeds in moist soil at a depth of about 3 cm, leaving a distance of 3-5 cm between them. If you use dill only for culinary purposes, you can plant the seeds closer, leaving a distance of 1 cm between them. But if you plan to make winter preparations, it is better to increase the space with seeds.
Place the seeds in the holes, sprinkle with soil and water.
Caring for dill
After planting the dill seeds, caring for it consists of regular watering and, if necessary, loosening the soil.
