my neighbour gave me some cilantro / corriander (aussie LOL) with the roots out of a pot but it looks limp.. I have put it soil and propped up the long stems with sticks bt it's going yellow. we live in a sub tropical climate and have no idea what to do with it.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Thanks mate. I think I got scared that it was limp because it needed water so I drowned it. I've just put it into a bigger container with dry soil to drain it a bit. Fingers crossed!
Really like that you're re-using plastic tubs! Save money and less that ends up in landfills. Makes it so much easier to use things we've already bought and repurpose rather than another trip to the garden shop to buy pots.
Started an indoor herb garden last year, and I failed miserably at Cilantro, which is my favorite and most used herb in my home. I will definitely do it like this starting today. Thank you very much for this video. Here we go! Wish me luck!
The Ripe Tomato Farms Yayyyyyy, Thank you Thank you, the cilantro are growing beautiful. I started almost 3 weeks ago and it looks amazing. I wish I can put a pic up. Thanks again.
Knowledge passed down from grandma: Each pod has two seeds in it, it’s best to split it in half you’ll get more plants. It also speeds up the growing process.
Yup. Except Cilantro grows awesome bunched together so with spacing NOT being an issue, you really don't need to split them up. Mine germinate in about 4-7 days normally, so speeding it up isn't a huge concern either! No wrong way though....you'll still get great plants by splitting the husks! Cheers!
@@esharaali2774 put the seeds on a damp paper towels and put that in a sealed container when you see it starts to geminate put it in potting soil it should take 2 weeks max
Jeff, ur accent is so cute and love to watch ur videos it’s so informative and easy to follow. Keep up the good work and helping others to be self sufficient like me 👍👍🙏🏻😇
A WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE*********************************I bought some coriander seeds and now will plant them according to your directions,,,BLESSINGS TO YOU DEAR SIR!
At 4:28, when you say to “water cilantro moderately”, is this now watering on top of the plant and no longer from below? I just wanted to confirm. Thank you for the video, I’m hoping this works for me as I wasn’t successful the first time.
@@persiablu If the Cilantro is still in a container with holes in the bottom, the single best way to water it is to place the container in a bath of cool water for an hour. It'll soak up all it needs and you'll be good to go (grow?)!!!
@@virginiaoliva8655 Oh heck yeah Virginia! These guys are tropical! They will thrive in your climate.The may bolt a little faster due to the heat..so maybe plant them in shadier spots...but there's no reason they won't grow for you! Indoors AND outdoors.

Thank for ur information which I don’t know for 5 - 8 years I’ve been gardening I just throw seeds from tomatoes I bought from market and never understand what and how to care for 😇🙏🏻👍 now I have known so many things from ur videos. Thank you
Same here. I'm in Victoria, BC. I grow Cilantro outdoors from March to June, then again from August to September. All other times I avoid the hassle and just grow it indoors!
I really appreciate the tip on pre-warming the soil... With this, although i already possess a heat mat, for this task I'm going "hi-tech" and employing slightly-more wet soil, and using the microwave.

Right on Jerry, love the tip! Bugs in soil when brought indoors and left unchecked by the natural balance of outside is a real thing.....better than using chemicals too! Good stuff, thanks for sharing.
Woohoo! New subscriber. Love your channel. And cilantro is one of my challenges. I finally got it stable in my community garden plot, but I want to grow it indoors during winter.
I can grow just about anything but my cilantro always grows about 3 inches and starts to wilt. I will definitely try some of these 'finer tips' this season. thanks!
Thanks for your gentle enthusiastic encouragement and straightforward instructions. Sympatico! I'm sold going to grow coriander and basil in my small kitchen in London (UK).

Hey Donna, thanks so much for the support! So glad you took the growing leap and Cilantro is a perfect plant for it! Report back with your success! :-)
interesting how some people say you need to bust the husk for best results but maybe that should be fed with a caveat that it's likely not needed if you sow them indoors with a temperature regulated propagator
Hey Mary, definitely! My favorite crops to grow simply because the returns on investment are so fast! I'm always grow them! Watch the heat down there for cilantro... Great for germinating, but not so good for preventing bolting! :-)
Thanks Ruby! Much appreciated! Cilantro is just such a great indoor crop. I've never had a bad experience with it once I used a little bit of heat to set that germination up properly. Cheers to you!
Thank you so much. One of my comfort foods is bone broth with plenty of cilantro. I can rarely keep my cilantro fresh enough to get through the bunch I buy so I’m wanting to grow it myself to prevent this. ☮️
I'm having trouble with Cilantro and Cumin germination and growth, I'll try this video's suggestions! My grow tent is 70-80... imma make a warmer patch for my seedlings
70-80F is pretty warm...you should be getting good results. Try it a little warmer and see if that helps, after that, check the seed source to make sure its good. Best of luck! :-)
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Now it's 70-80, before it dropped to 62 without lighting at night. Cilantro likes 80ish for germination from what I read =\ It could just take more time than my other seeds did
Hey Hayden, I always water from below so that we don't blast the soil (and the seeds) everywhere. Its a hassle. Plus, the container/pot can take up exactly what it needs, as well, watering from aboce "washes" the soil, depleting it of nutrients.
Thanks Kimberly! Cilantro and Basil (th-cam.com/video/3SxUCtiwOys/w-d-xo.html) are crazy easy to germinate and grow indoors! You got this! Funny, your "rainy day" video popped up in my feed the other day and I watched it because your thumbnail looked almost identical to the street my parents live on up here in Victoria! Too cool. :-)
do you think the heat is necessary if i'm in southern california? the weather is warming up, but it's not HOT yet. i've been watching a lot of your videos this week btw, limited grocery trips have motivated me to start growing more stuff at home. thanks for all the great info!
This video was awesome, thank you! I have been trying to grow cilantro from seed indoors and both times my cilantro has become infested with aphids and they're so hard to get rid of😔 Do you have any advice for the best ways to prevent aphids or get rid of them? I was so shocked when they came onto my indoor plant, in the winter, when the cilantro was grown from seed. Thank you for making these videos to help first time Gardners like me!
Thanks Lara! Its gotta be your soil source. Usually you can keep the pests at bay as long as you don't bring any from outside. But with no natural predators inside, they quickly explode and are impossible to deal with.
Can't believe it - my seeds are starting to come up. Thank you for this great video. Haven't grown anything for years and this is very helpful. Where are you located please? I'm in Calgary Alberta.
Sometimes Yanni! They don't have crazy root systems, so they can live quite nicely in smaller pots. But for the really big ones I'll give them more space. :-)
You can definitely try Raine. Do a seed viability test first to see if the seeds will even sprout before wasting soil and space. Simply place the seeds in damp paper towel and keep warm. Within a week or two, you'll know if they sprout. :-)
Very well explained and concise. I am a subscriber now, I’m new to gardening but got the itch now and starting with growing herbs from seed with some success. But now my cilantro is turning yellow at the bottom leaves and unsure what’s wrong. It’s only 2-3 mos old and in partial sun prob 4 -6 hrs a day. Do u have any suggestions or videos on that? I’m also working on growing some vegetables too. Thank you
Sometimes Cilantro uses up the goodness in the pot and starts to fade out. Basil does it too. Here's what I do when Basil does it, th-cam.com/video/uDbNDh1u-7g/w-d-xo.html and it'll likely work for Cilantro as well. Or, just start a new batch. Happy gardening pilar!
@the ripe tomato farms Some questions I have, an absolute begginer to gardening : 1. When do you moisten the potting soil, at the 75% mark when placing the seeds or afterwards? I always have trouble deciding this, and also when to know that Im overwatering/underwatering 2. I see youve placed your tubs above a spouting tray, is this just to keep it neat? Im guessing the main point here it that youve placed it close to a heat source ie radiator, or am I missing something else? 3. When you watered the bottom of the tray, how did this get to the coriander? Thank you, a new subs here!
Hey Taryn, I moisten the soil prior to planting the seeds. The seeds need absolute moisture to even germinate.....the adult plant needs less moisture to thrive. I really soak the soil to germinate the seeds (plus add heat......you want 85-90F soil temps)....but then once you get actual Cilantro plants, back that heat off as well as don't water. In fact, after the initial soaking I probably don't water again for a month!
Thanks for all your video. I like all of them and it's very inspiring and informative. I also saw, you trying to grow avocado in the cilantro video. Could it be possible to grow avocado in Toronto canada? Were you successful? Did you get any avocados? I too tried it but after it grew three quarter of a foot, it couldn't survive. I will try growing cilantro indoors. I grew it in last summer outside. Results were not bad but not great. Thanks again. I have planted garlic outside and will wait for the results. If you don't mind me asking, are you in Toronto, Canada?😊 👍👍
Hey thanks for watching! I'm on the opposite coast, in Victoria , BC. For my Avocados, they have to be grown indoors...I'll put them on my deck for a few months out of the summer, but they are completely tropical. They won't last outside in our climate. Here's a video I did on Avocados: th-cam.com/video/765FiqnhvXA/w-d-xo.html All the best this growing season!
When you say ‘Water from below’, are there holes somewhere near the bottom of the containers? Excited to stop watering from above, knocks my sprouts right over!
Good catch Ryan. Yes, if using pots, they always have holes in the bottom. In these containers, I made holes. Needed for drainage of ANY plant except maybe microgreens because they grow so quickly.
Wow that was great information! Thank you. Especially for me cuz I don’t have a green thumb, my mom did. You explained everything well, thanks again. And yes it was my first video watching you 👍🏻
What do you mean "water from below?" Were there holes in the bottom of those white square containers? Thanks!! Trying to learn as much as possible before trying to grow some cilantro on my own =)
I am glad that I have found your channel. Thank you so much for all the knowledge you have given us 💖. Soon planting my coriander 🙂. Do you have any idea how to grow curry plant at home?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms thank you for your reply. I know curry plant like warm weather with less water. I am here in Toronto so it's more challenging even indoor. I tried 2 times with the baby plant but didn't survived.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms not from seed, someone gave me a little plant almost 6,7 inches it looks like growing in summer but it died when the season changing even keeping it indoor. I really appreciate your time and help 🙂
Thanks Farah. The biggest issue is with soil coming from being stored outside. You can simply pre-heat your soil by bringing it indoors over night, or putting it on the heat mat like I did here, or by simply moistening it with warm water. Many many different ways to make it happen! Cheers!
The Ripe Tomato Farms thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I had no idea you needed to warm the soil. This helps a bunch and I can’t wait to try your method 🙏🏻.
@@farahsyed9559 No problem Farah. Its not always necessary with all plants....but Basil and Cilantro really seem to need it for the best germination results.
Thank you for this video. Can you advise about harvesting and maintenance. Can I just snip off what is needed, like green onion and chives, or do I need to pull out the stalk and keep germinating seeds to keep supply regular? If you have a video that already addresses this, then point me towards it.
Hey perisablu, throughout the season you can definitely keep harvesting and it'll grow back. Its actually beneficial because it'll slow down bolting (flowering), which we don't want. Its a little different than Basil though, and you need to leave 2-3 nodes on the plant to have it keep growing.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarmsAHHH, ok. Thank you so much for this information. I'm in Hawai'i and our temperature has been steady in the mid-80s during the day, so we thought we could try germinating seeds outside, but I was concerned that the seeds had to be kept in the 80-85 degree temp environment 24/7. We tried anyway, and wouldn't you know it since I planted the seeds, it's been overcast and rainy all week, dropping temp into the 70s. The heat just wasn't there. Needless to say, it's been a week and nothing has sprouted yet. So, do I need to keep the plants under a consistent 80-85 degrees 24/7?
@@persiablu They'll come up, don't worry. Any dip in temps can just set it back, but it won't necessarily kill the seeds. I am confident they'll sprout for you.

Thanks Kimberly! Cilantro and Basil (th-cam.com/video/3SxUCtiwOys/w-d-xo.html) are crazy easy to germinate and grow indoors! You got this! Funny, your "rainy day" video popped up in my feed the other day and I watched it because your thumbnail looked almost identical to the street my parents live on up here in Victoria! Too cool. :-)
Thank you so much!!! I love your explanation! I want you to explain everything to me 😆
Ha ha thanks Tehya! The only problem is, I don't know enough past the art of gardening, LOL! Cheers to you, stay safe.
idk what it is but your accent/intonation makes everything seem More Exciting. thank you ❤️
Ha ha, thanks Sydney! Cilantro IS exciting!
Amazing tips
do you think the heat is necessary if i'm in southern california? the weather is warming up, but it's not HOT yet. i've been watching a lot of your videos this week btw, limited grocery trips have motivated me to start growing more stuff at home. thanks for all the great info!
You should be totally ok in So Cal. Definitely warm enough to sprout Cilantro and Basil, and easily Dill and Arugula as well.
The Ripe Tomato Farms thank you!!
@@VeganDynamite How did it go? Did you get the seeds to germinate?
Thanks , I am trying this right away.
This video was awesome, thank you! I have been trying to grow cilantro from seed indoors and both times my cilantro has become infested with aphids and they're so hard to get rid of😔 Do you have any advice for the best ways to prevent aphids or get rid of them? I was so shocked when they came onto my indoor plant, in the winter, when the cilantro was grown from seed. Thank you for making these videos to help first time Gardners like me!
Thanks Lara! Its gotta be your soil source. Usually you can keep the pests at bay as long as you don't bring any from outside. But with no natural predators inside, they quickly explode and are impossible to deal with.
How often are you supposed to water plants in general? I just planted these and don’t know how often is too much.
Great video! What do you use to heat the soil? Doesn't it hurt the seeds? Thank you
Good info in here!
Cheers Greg, thanks for watching! :-)
Can't believe it - my seeds are starting to come up. Thank you for this great video. Haven't grown anything for years and this is very helpful. Where are you located please? I'm in Calgary Alberta.
Right on Wendy! That's so awesome to hear! Cilantro is the best! I'm in Victoria, BC, so not far away!
ThNk you for your great video.
Thanks for your good video , & the history of this plant
And thanks to you for watching! Cheers.
Very well done video! Loved the recap at the end. I am now a subscriber to you channel Thank you
Thanks NW Lady, that's awesome! Thanks for the support, happy herbing!
Thank you 😊
Cheers Minh, thanks for watching! 🙂
Like your tutorial video.
Cheers, thanks for watching!
I love growing cilantro... and i have noticed that if we break the seeds, they grow much faster.
Right on jaz! I haven't noticed any difference, but I'll give it a try with my next batch!
Excellent video on cilantro. Did you transplant them into a bigger pot or you left them in the little pot you started with the germination?
Sometimes Yanni! They don't have crazy root systems, so they can live quite nicely in smaller pots. But for the really big ones I'll give them more space. :-)
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Thank you so much. Greatly appreciate your excellent advice.
This is so therapeutic to watch
As is Cilantro to eat! :-) Cheers.
Can I grow coriander seeds from spice jars? Thank you, Sir! Learned so much from your videos and have planted most herbs and spices I need!
You can definitely try Raine. Do a seed viability test first to see if the seeds will even sprout before wasting soil and space. Simply place the seeds in damp paper towel and keep warm. Within a week or two, you'll know if they sprout. :-)
Very well explained and concise. I am a subscriber now, I’m new to gardening but got the itch now and starting with growing herbs from seed with some success. But now my cilantro is turning yellow at the bottom leaves and unsure what’s wrong. It’s only 2-3 mos old and in partial sun prob 4 -6 hrs a day. Do u have any suggestions or videos on that? I’m also working on growing some vegetables too. Thank you
Sometimes Cilantro uses up the goodness in the pot and starts to fade out. Basil does it too. Here's what I do when Basil does it, th-cam.com/video/uDbNDh1u-7g/w-d-xo.html and it'll likely work for Cilantro as well. Or, just start a new batch. Happy gardening pilar!
@the ripe tomato farms Some questions I have, an absolute begginer to gardening : 1. When do you moisten the potting soil, at the 75% mark when placing the seeds or afterwards? I always have trouble deciding this, and also when to know that Im overwatering/underwatering 2. I see youve placed your tubs above a spouting tray, is this just to keep it neat? Im guessing the main point here it that youve placed it close to a heat source ie radiator, or am I missing something else? 3. When you watered the bottom of the tray, how did this get to the coriander? Thank you, a new subs here!
Hey Taryn, I moisten the soil prior to planting the seeds. The seeds need absolute moisture to even germinate.....the adult plant needs less moisture to thrive. I really soak the soil to germinate the seeds (plus add heat......you want 85-90F soil temps)....but then once you get actual Cilantro plants, back that heat off as well as don't water. In fact, after the initial soaking I probably don't water again for a month!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms hey there! Thank you for this, really helpful :) looking forward to mor3 videos :)
Great video!!
Thank you. 🙂
Thanks for all your video. I like all of them and it's very inspiring and informative. I also saw, you trying to grow avocado in the cilantro video. Could it be possible to grow avocado in Toronto canada? Were you successful? Did you get any avocados? I too tried it but after it grew three quarter of a foot, it couldn't survive. I will try growing cilantro indoors. I grew it in last summer outside. Results were not bad but not great. Thanks again. I have planted garlic outside and will wait for the results. If you don't mind me asking, are you in Toronto, Canada?😊 👍👍
Hey thanks for watching! I'm on the opposite coast, in Victoria , BC. For my Avocados, they have to be grown indoors...I'll put them on my deck for a few months out of the summer, but they are completely tropical. They won't last outside in our climate. Here's a video I did on Avocados: th-cam.com/video/765FiqnhvXA/w-d-xo.html All the best this growing season!
Wo, 80 to 85 degrees is very warm. Warmer than inside my house in winter. How do I get there? Heated box?
Hey Bill, great question. Usually with a heat mat designed for germinating seeds. They are very low wattage and quite inexpensive now.
Very insightful vid! But can I just ask if your pot has holes in it? I so want to plant this! Thank you.
Yes, 100% always...plants without drainage will perish very very quickly!
When you say ‘Water from below’, are there holes somewhere near the bottom of the containers? Excited to stop watering from above, knocks my sprouts right over!
Good catch Ryan. Yes, if using pots, they always have holes in the bottom. In these containers, I made holes. Needed for drainage of ANY plant except maybe microgreens because they grow so quickly.
Thank you for this 😍♥️
Wow that was great information! Thank you. Especially for me cuz I don’t have a green thumb, my mom did. You explained everything well, thanks again. And yes it was my first video watching you 👍🏻
Thanks for that Martha! The great things about herbs is that you can grow them indoors anytime of the year. Nothing beats fresh herbs!
Thank you, I’m going to grow some. Why water from below ?
Nice video
Good video
What do you mean "water from below?" Were there holes in the bottom of those white square containers? Thanks!! Trying to learn as much as possible before trying to grow some cilantro on my own =)
Can you also share the link of the soil
And also share some tips in snowy days how to seed cilantro
Thanks
I am glad that I have found your channel. Thank you so much for all the knowledge you have given us 💖. Soon planting my coriander 🙂.
Do you have any idea how to grow curry plant at home?
Awesome, thanks for watching! Curry plants can be tricky. They like it dry and they like sandy-type soils.Definitely don't over water them. Cheers!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms thank you for your reply. I know curry plant like warm weather with less water. I am here in Toronto so it's more challenging even indoor. I tried 2 times with the baby plant but didn't survived.
@@wnsabu Were you growing it from seed?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms not from seed, someone gave me a little plant almost 6,7 inches it looks like growing in summer but it died when the season changing even keeping it indoor. I really appreciate your time and help 🙂
Thanks so much for this informative video. How do you preheat the soil though? Not sure about that step.
Thanks Farah. The biggest issue is with soil coming from being stored outside. You can simply pre-heat your soil by bringing it indoors over night, or putting it on the heat mat like I did here, or by simply moistening it with warm water. Many many different ways to make it happen! Cheers!
The Ripe Tomato Farms thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I had no idea you needed to warm the soil. This helps a bunch and I can’t wait to try your method 🙏🏻.
@@farahsyed9559 No problem Farah. Its not always necessary with all plants....but Basil and Cilantro really seem to need it for the best germination results.
Thank you for this video. Can you advise about harvesting and maintenance. Can I just snip off what is needed, like green onion and chives, or do I need to pull out the stalk and keep germinating seeds to keep supply regular? If you have a video that already addresses this, then point me towards it.
persiablu - I saw in a few comments above yours, that he treats cilantro as an annual and replants every year.
Mo Poppins, thank you so much for pointing that out, that’s helpful.
Hey perisablu, throughout the season you can definitely keep harvesting and it'll grow back. Its actually beneficial because it'll slow down bolting (flowering), which we don't want. Its a little different than Basil though, and you need to leave 2-3 nodes on the plant to have it keep growing.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarmsAHHH, ok. Thank you so much for this information. I'm in Hawai'i and our temperature has been steady in the mid-80s during the day, so we thought we could try germinating seeds outside, but I was concerned that the seeds had to be kept in the 80-85 degree temp environment 24/7. We tried anyway, and wouldn't you know it since I planted the seeds, it's been overcast and rainy all week, dropping temp into the 70s. The heat just wasn't there. Needless to say, it's been a week and nothing has sprouted yet. So, do I need to keep the plants under a consistent 80-85 degrees 24/7?
@@persiablu They'll come up, don't worry. Any dip in temps can just set it back, but it won't necessarily kill the seeds. I am confident they'll sprout for you.
