Many of Sustainable Stace videos are about herbs: thyme, oregano, chives, rosemary and sage are already big faves for many viewers. The herb Parsley is well worth a mention to get more praise and attention in our gardens.
Learn about its best friends in the garden for planting, how to get it going and have parsley success. Whether you’re growing in pots or directly in the soil, parsley is easy to grow and troubleshoot in the garden.
We’ll review how to keep it healthy to get maximum abundance from your parsley - either curly or flat leaf varities.
In the kitchen, whether you enjoy parsley raw or cooked, consider the versatility of parsley and how to add its wonderful flavor to enhance so many dishes.
Your channel deserves way more views!!
Thank you so much. It's my first time planting curly parsley so glad l came across your site will be watching more. From Prince George BC
you're welcome - parsley growing is so rewarding!
in earlier days I tree planted around PG, i.e. Bowron Lakes region.
Yes. There's a lot of fires that way right now it's really bad.
The J root advice is excellent. Thank you.
You're very welcome.
the parsley flowers are great in salads; we use the parsley leaves as a salad base - it is helpful to digestion - tabouleh!!!!
Great tip! Parsley is so versatile.
I’ve been incorporating herbs & pollinator flowers in and around my organically grown garden for a long time.
I even use the cardboard which is very beneficial when it gets wet from the drip system.
A lot of things that are biannual such as Portuguese kale, beets and cilantro that I am growing, seed the second year, I saved the majority of seed off the plants, but I leave just 1 plant of each to seed & drop those seeds so volunteers come up and they are heartier.
I have a broccoli seedlings that came up already from just the broccoli going to seed this summer, because it got so hot here and bolted, so I let the seed start to fall, but saved the rest for later.
It still is hot 🥵!
But, getting a lot of volunteers which is wonderful!
We use lots of parsley in my family being Lebanese for tabouleh & kafta. 😋Nice video ty
My pleasure 😊
Parsley is a high nutrition feed for chickens. That's why I'm looking into growing it.
Great idea!
Going broke no more buying parsley and basal lol thanks 😊
Herbs are amazing fresh out your own garden. Kinda expensive at the store too!
Way to go - happy growing.
parsley i have to try planting it too after observing you
Best information ever thankyou!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Very knowledgeable. Thanks
My pleasure - I wish you great luck growing!
Yes they can be overwintered under grow lights. I did it and harvested in February and replanted in May. Im currently experimenting if they can be useful after 2 seasons. Maybe for seeds? ( it’s actually from store bought herb bunch) they are very hardy.
Yes, it's true!
We had a mild winter this year and our parsley - growing outdoors - managed thru the winter and we've been harvesting since April!
I believe if you keep cutting it back it will keep growing just fine.
I've had a very hard time growing parsley for some reason. As for j-root, I just planted several parsley plants yesterday, would it be worth re-planting them to make sure i have the root straight down?
Parsley has not been cooperating with you ?
If you're second guessing whether or not you 'j rooted' your plants, it won't hurt to go back and check.
wishing you well.
Very nice.
Thank you
Thank you for the idea of only watering the plants at the root, to prevent issues! What to do about rainfall?
You're welcome. It's a very prudent way to get water where you want it and also to NOT water the weeds which you don't want to encourage !
Rainfall? Yes, always a challenge with it being unpredictable.
😊
first time parsley mom, just got a pot from Hands in Service here in Kelowna BC, please help me to keep it growing.
Hi Rose - I'm visiting friends in Naramata today.
We're practically neighbors. Parsely is hardy. Make sure it's in a pot that let's it grow & Don't overwater it and it should be fine!
Is it possible to plant a store bought parsley plant in soil outdoors?
Yes it is!
Can you freeze pieces for storing all year
Absolutely. With fresh herbs that I want to store I usually do one of two things:
1) food process with a bit of oil, freeze in ice cube trays and then once frozen pop them into a zip lock back in the freezer. Pull 'em out as you need them
2) dehydrate
Uncle where you living ? Iwant to visit you im from Indonesia
I live on the west coast of Canada on Vancouver Island & I enjoy visitors :)
What are "urbs"?
Herbs are plants that provide flavour in many dishes, usually the leaves of which are added.
some examples: parsley, thyme, oregano, rosemary and sage
@@SustainableStace Well you American folk are funny. Why do you not pronounce the "H" and just say "erb/s"?
I made a big mistake, though the curly parsley was carrots or weeds, so I guess weeds pulled it out and threw it in the bin. I wasn't sure what it was. It was growing next to my rosemary, so I got rid of it. OMG, I'm so upset now. 😢😅😢
shoot - that's a bummer. The tops of parsley and carrots can be confused. Thankfully, parsley can be replaced easily!
Do you have a preference, flat leaf or curly parsley?
It depends on the application.
I use either / or in smoothies and drinks.
I essentially use flat leaf in place of Celery in dishes b/c it cuts up and tastes so similar. An example would be Potato Salad.
The curly I use more frequently as a liberal garnish on casseroles and hot dishes.
@@SustainableStace I appreciate your response. I recently subscribed to your channel. I am a 30 year gardener, but I learn something new with each of your videos.
@@nancyhickman1458 that's so encouraging to hear. Thanks for subscribing and I'm glad what I've been putting out there is having positive results in your garden :)
I like the curly better but that could be mental because the flat looks like my nemesis, cilantro. My 6 year old daughter who hates ANYTHING green and basically all vegetables except potatoes and has always been an ibligate carnivore, loves parsley for some reason. My 4 and 11 year old daughters who prefer raw vegetables over everything are addicted to chimichurri. Parsley and red chili flakes are an incredible combination on ramen
I came to your channel because the title says you will tell me how to make parsley thrive. However, you NEVER mentioned how to prune it!! Frustrating!!!
Hi Betty,
Thanks for the comment. I'm always striving to provide helpful content. Different viewers have different levels of knowledge and different challenges in their garden.
It sounds like you wanted guidance on pruning.
If you think your Parsley is growing great i.e. thriving and you think it needs pruning - you should prune it!
I don't assume that Parsley should be pruned as you suggested.
if it bolts and seeks to produce flowers and seeds, that can be a great thing for next year's garden.
If you don't want it to bolt - YES, give those long, lanky shoots a pruning and you'll have slowed its efforts to go to seed!
but . . . once a parsley wants to go to seed, it's usually better to let it do so.
my advice, have multiple parsley plants and let the 'grow for it'
@@SustainableStace Thank you for your reply. Again, I was specifically looking for pruning to ensure regrowth. I did find the information I was looking for and I have new sprouts coming up. I live in the middle of NJ so I want to try to bring my herbs inside in the fall to have fresh all winter. I really appreciate you getting back to me. Thank you.
