    Another pro tip--if you want a coriander or basil for your kitchen, buy a plant from a garden centre not the ones from the supermarket. They are less expensive and better quality plants

      The Supermarket is an indoor climate controlled (for human comfort) environment, very different to an outdoor garden, where the will no doubt thrive under the sun, if it isn't way too cold.

      Supermarket £1.50, Garden Centre £4. Seeds 89p. Actual pro tip... Buy seeds, grow them. You get far more, for far less and far better quality. You can even chose the variety.. and varieties can make all the difference based on climate, time of year etc.

    Great video! I totally agree - supermarket herb plants (grown under ideal conditions) are often only intended to make it a few days home, if that. My remarks are mostly re indoor gardening. Finally this spring, I did my research, and committed to cultivating a bona fide herb garden in my living room, close to my kitchen (cooking is my passion). Thanks in no small part to my new 5-shelf 8-ballast grow light system, everything I planted except for my chives (pinhead-sized seeds so crowded fast) took off. I learned so much, especially each plant’s needs and the limits of my ambition.
    It turns out, cilantro is a cool weather plant and doesn’t like many hours in the heat. When the seeds germinated and grew big enough in their silicone cells, I up-potted the seedlings into 4” pots. They took off. Unfortunately, because they got too much light (and heat) and I couldn’t use it fast enough (and wasn’t pruning religiously), they bolted (flowered and went to seed) prematurely. Lessons learned.
    About supermarket plants, I think they’re a mixed bag. Until this year, every one I’d ever bought died within days. But this spring, I bought a beautifully fragrant and deep green basil plant from Trader Joe’s. It actually grew gangbusters under my shelving system, but I couldn’t use it fast enough. I’d already frozen what I thought I’d use in the next few months. And didn’t have enough to make pesto. So I kept taking cuttings and put each in a separate mason jar full of water. To my shock, every cutting sent out many robust roots the length of their submerged stems! Eventually, their root networks started to fill the jars, and I had to pot them. Again, they took off and I was again faced with a mountain of basil! And then thrips (out of nowhere), which I treated with Captain Jack’s but couldn’t bring myself to use after. My point is, don’t reject all supermarket plants out of hand - some can actually be winners.

      $15 for a coriander/cilantro plant? Really? Or was it some exotic orchid? $15 buys a massive pile of cilantro seeds. Throw them in the ground. Sprinkle over some soil and water for 3 weeks. Even the most inept gardener would end up with more cilantro than they could possibly consume….

    Coriander sold at supermarkets isnt really designed for growing, its meant to be consumed quite quickly. Being in a pot keeps its fresher than bunched...
    Coriander hates being divided and transplanted, sure you might have some success but ultimately the best bet is to buy a pack of 50 seeds for the same price and plant them in pots.
