How to properly grow parsley outdoors?

It is difficult to imagine a farmer who does not grow greens on his plot. Any gardener will definitely provide a garden bed for sowing parsley. Not a single summer dish is complete without this greenery. Parsley has a fairly wide range of applications. It is added to hot dishes, salads, used for decoration, made preparations for the winter in dry or frozen form, eaten raw as a spicy herb. With proper care, planting in open ground before winter and spring is not difficult.

Characteristics and useful properties of parsley

There are two types of parsley - root and leaf... Contains a large amount of nutrients:

• vitamins PP, E, C (5 times more than in lemon and rose hips);
• elements P (phosphorus), Ce (selenium), K (potassium);
• calcium, iron, magnesium;
• a complex of water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins thiamine, riboflavin, retinol.

The root differs from the leaf in that it is used for food root vegetableformed at the end of the season. Has the same flavoring properties as leaf.

Used for the preparation of marinades and pickles.

Leafy can be - ordinary and curly... Curly is used to add to dishes and as a decoration.

Correct sowing of parsley seeds in the garden in spring

Sowing work must be carried out in April, as soon as the frosts pass and the earth warms up to +5 degrees.

Soaking for successful germination

It should be noted that the seeds contain essential oils that prevent germination. In order for the seeds to germinate faster before planting, they must be soaked.

This can be done in one of the following ways:

• Method 1... Before soaking, the seeds are dipped in hot water (not boiling water). Hot water will wash off essential oils from the seeds. Then pour water at room temperature (19-23 degrees) on the bottom of the saucer, pour out the seeds and leave for 12 hours. Then the seeds need to be soaked in a growth stimulator. During the soaking process, they need to be pulled out every 3 hours so that oxygen can flow to the seeds. After three days, the seeds are ready for planting.
• Method 2... Before soaking, pour vodka into the bottom of the saucer and dip the seeds wrapped in cheesecloth for 15-20 minutes into it. You should carefully monitor the time so that the seeds do not get burned. Having taken out of the saucer with vodka, the seeds must be thoroughly rinsed with water and dried.

Soaking parsley seeds

Both methods will help the seeds germinate faster.

Also, some gardeners use soaking parsley, carrot or dill seeds in milk, and are happy with the result.

How to make the processing and preparation of soil for growing

Before planting seeds in the garden, it is necessary to prepare and process the soil. They begin to prepare the soil in the fall. The beds are dug up and introduced into the soil mullein.

If the soil is predominantly clayey add sifted river sand and sawdust... In the spring, the soil must be well loosened and applied mineral fertilizers (it is better to plant parsley in fertile soil).

For the growth of greenery, a garden bed where tomatoes, zucchini, onions, and cucumbers were previously grown are best suited. The beds should be in the sun, or slightly shaded. Sowing seeds is necessary no deeper than 1 cm... Sprinkle the grooves with earth, water well, mulch with humus or cover with plastic.

Care after planting in the open field

When the first shoots will sprout, it is necessary loosen the soil and thin out the seedlings... The first thinning is performed in the presence of 2-3 leaves. The distance between the bushes should be more than 2 cm.

The second thinning must be done in the presence of 5-6 leaves. Leave between the plants no more than 6 cm.

Loosening the soil and removing weeds must be done at least 4 times.

During the season, you need to make top dressing 2 times and be sure to loosen at least 4 times... The first top dressing is applied to the soil if the seedlings have 2-3 leaves. Nitrogen-rich fertilizers are best suited for this purpose.

Cutting the stems is necessary as close to the ground as possible... It is not recommended to cut off a large number of leaves from the bush at once in one day. You need to cut 1/3 of the bush to give the bush time to recover. If you do not plan to collect seeds, then the stem with inflorescences must be removed, since new leaves will not grow.

A prerequisite for growing for a good harvest is regular watering, weed removal and loosening of the soil. Watering must be done in the evening. Loosening is necessary to give oxygen access to the roots of the plant. If there is a need to harvest before late autumn, it is recommended to sow parsley twice a month.

To plant in spring, the following varieties are recommended:

1. Leaf parsleyOrdinary". Refers to early ripening varieties. Matures in 70 days. The taste is spicy, the leaves are dissected, the rosette is powerful. Only leaves are suitable for food.
2. «Breeze"- sheet. Aging period 80 days. The taste is delicate, retains freshness and taste for a long time after cutting.
3. «Aster"- curly-haired variety. Matures in 65 days. After cutting, the bush quickly recovers and grows back.
4. «Yielding"- a variety of root greens, has a pointed root crop. Aging period 130 days;
5. «Festivalnaya"- leaf parsley. Ripening period 56-65 days. The leaves are dark green in color, fragrant, strongly dissected. Grows well after cutting.

How to sow seeds for the winter

Sowing parsley for the winter is good because greens will begin to appear as soon as the snow melts and it becomes warm.

Seeds that have wintered in the ground sprout very active... After cutting off the first greens, the garden bed can be used again.

The soil for planting should be prepared in the fall. Having dug up the bed, you need to apply fertilizer. It is better to use mullein for this purpose.

In November, after the onset of frost, when the topsoil freezes by 2 cm, you can sow seeds. Seeds not recommended to soakso that they do not rise before the onset of frost.

In the soil, it is necessary to make grooves 2 cm deep with a distance between rows of 15-20 cm. Pour a layer of quicklime 0.5 cm thick into the grooves and sow parsley seeds into them. Sprinkle the grooves with earth and cover them with humus. The humus will keep you warm and protected from the wind.

In the spring, as soon as shoots appear, it is necessary to water 3 times a week with warm water... Plants should be watered in the evening.

When planting before winter, after the emergence of seedlings, watered 3 times a week

After the emergence of 2 leaves on the shoots, it is necessary to perform the first thinning. Only the strongest shoots should be left. The second thinning is performed if there are 5-6 leaves on the seedlings. The distance to honey with bushes is 10 cm.

Top dressing must be applied twice... The first time after the leaves appear. The second feeding should be carried out in two weeks.After applying top dressing, watering is necessary so that the nutrients penetrate well into the soil and dissolve there.

If the soil is not depleted, there is no need for feeding, since parsley does not like an abundance of fertilizers.

Causes of Poor Seed Germination

Even experienced gardeners sometimes face the problem of poor parsley sprouting. Let's try to figure out the reasons why it may not come up:

1. Increased acidity of the soil... You can normalize the acidity level by adding ash to the soil;
2. The soil is heavy... If parsley seeds are planted deeply, they cannot penetrate the thick soil. It is necessary to sow to a depth of no more than 1 cm in spring and 1.5 cm in winter. In the event that the soil is clayey, it is necessary to add sifted river sand and sawdust to the soil;
3. Bed in the shade... Greens grow well in sunny beds. It may not rise in the shadows at all. In the case of seedlings in shaded beds, it will be very pale, with a weak aroma and poorly expressed taste;
4. Seeds with a poor shelf life... Remains germinating only for three years. To get a good harvest, you need to sow only fresh seeds;
5. Long germination period... The high content of essential oils in the seeds repels water and makes germination difficult. To speed up the process, the seeds are soaked in hot water.

One of the reasons for poor germination is seeds with a poor shelf life.

Harvesting and storage

Parsley can be harvested throughout the season.

The best way to store parsley is freezing... Why? - When frozen, parsley does not lose its aroma, the color remains the same, the taste does not change.

Wash parsley leaves, dry with a towel, finely chop. Put the chopped leaves in a plastic bag and put in the freezer, they will look great even when frozen.

If necessary, the required amount can be easily separated from the total mass (frozen parsley is easy to cut). Collect the parsley stalks in small bunches and freeze.

Them use when preparing any hot dishes... It is enough to dip a bunch of stems into a hot dish for 5 minutes before the end of cooking. This will improve its taste. Parsley can also be stored dry by first drying it in a dry room with low light.

Root parsley is harvested in late autumn, before the onset of frost. The leaves are cut off and stored in the basement, sprinkled with sand.

This spicy and healthy plant, when properly planted and cared for, will surely delight you with a rich, vitamin-rich harvest. Planting and growing it is easy, the main thing is to process the seeds and care for them properly.

It is difficult to imagine a small garden of a summer resident and fields of a modern farm without parsley. Parsley, which became a valuable agricultural crop in ancient times, gradually spread from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea to almost all continents.

In Russia, both leaf and root parsley are planted, and both varieties with the usual leaf shape and with curly ones are grown on greens.

You can distinguish a root crop from a leaf one by a dense, conical, even root crop, like leaves, rich in vitamins, sugars, aromatic substances and trace elements. Leaf parsley has thinner and more branched roots. Greens are produced by both types of plants.

Therefore, the cultivation of parsley in the open field is carried out with two goals:

• to obtain root crops and greens, for which a crop is planted with seeds;
• for forcing fresh foliage obtained when planting the roots of the previous year.

Planting and caring for parsley outdoors

The peculiarity of parsley is that in the first season all the forces of the plant go to the growth of both foliage and root. If the root crop is planted in the second year or left to winter, a rosette of leaves will appear in April, and parsley will bloom in summer.For growing parsley in the open field, several techniques are used that allow you to get the earliest and most abundant harvest of greens.

If in the spring parsley was planted in open ground with seeds, then the grown plants can be left in the winter. In order for the parsley to have time to prepare for the end of the growing season, it is better to cut the leaves from it no later than September, and with the arrival of cold weather, the plants are spud and covered with a layer of mulch from foliage, straw or needles.

With the onset of spring and the melting of the snow, the mulch is removed, and a film shelter is made over the beds. How long to wait for the leaves to appear, and how much does parsley sprout in this case? Fresh parsley will go to the table in April, and the leaves can be cut off until the flower stem rises above the outlet.

If the parsley is not left in the soil for the winter, then the roots stored in the basement in early spring:

• shorten to 12-15 cm;
• cleaned of dried and rotten foliage and petioles;
• treated with a stimulant for better root formation;
• planted under a film, leaving a gap of 8-10 cm between the plants.

This will give parsley three early harvests of greens.

The main method is to plant parsley seeds in open ground. It is important to take into account that the culture is not fast germinating. Therefore, parsley is often sown with sprouted seeds from early spring to July. In this case, the culture has time to give one harvest and can successfully overwinter.

Root varieties are sown no later than mid-May so that the parsley has time to form a full-fledged root crop.

Dry seeds fall into the soil before winter. In this case, they are buried in the ground from the second half of October until the very frost, and when the snow cover is established, they are additionally covered with snow. In the spring, such crops begin to develop already at 4 ° C, can be grown under a film or in the open field, since parsley grown in the open field is not afraid of even frosts down to -9 ° C.

We can apply to the cultivation of leafy parsley and the seedling method. Germinated seeds first grow in peat cups or tablets, and in April, at the age of 30–40 days, they are transplanted into open ground. As a result of using this technique, you can get early greens and spend up to six collections in the summer season.

Planting parsley seeds outdoors

Due to the frost resistance of parsley seeds, this crop is sown starting in early spring. Is it possible to plant parsley in July, will the plant have time to give greens? Until the end of July or the first decade of August, leafy varieties can be sown. If parsley is intended for root crops, then you will hardly have to wait for a good result from the plants sown after mid-May.

The July crops of green varieties can produce foliage in the second half of summer, then leave before winter and yield the next year.

Without preliminary preparation, parsley seeds hatch extremely slowly. How much does parsley grow? This usually happens no earlier than 2-3 weeks later. Sowing material collected no earlier than a year ago possesses higher growth energy and germination, but in this case germination can be accelerated:

• Before spring or summer sowing in open ground, the seed is soaked in water with a temperature of 18-22 ° C.
• The water in the seed container is changed every 3-4 hours.
• After 2-3 days, it is left in a solution of a growth stimulator or microelements for another 18 hours. It is better if oxygen is passed through the liquid at this time, which will speed up the process of pecking the seed.
• Seedlings from the hatched seeds appear within a week.

When planting parsley in open ground with seeds, about 1 gram of prepared seeds is required per square meter of the ridge. If the culture is sown in the summer, then before planting in the soil, the ridges are watered abundantly, and the number of seeds per square meter is increased by a third.

Growing parsley in the open field provides for the preservation of a small interval between individual plants, from 4 to 12 cm, depending on the species and variety:

• Root parsley is sown with an interval of 1–4 cm, while the seeds are lowered into the groove one by one.
• Common parsley is sown at a distance of 10–12 cm, and curly parsley at an interval of 8–10 cm. This crop is sown 3 or 4 seeds per nest, followed by thinning.

The seeding depth of parsley seeds during spring or summer sowing is 6–10 mm; in autumn, the grooves are made twice as deep.

After planting parsley in open ground with seeds and dusting the furrows, the soil is slightly compacted, watering of the plantings is carried out, which are mulched from above or covered with a film.

Outdoor parsley care

When choosing a site for planting and caring for parsley in the open field, it is better to give preference to the beds where zucchini, pumpkins, cucumbers or tomatoes used to grow. Re-sowing after parsley or other umbellates is carried out after three to four years. For parsley, especially root varieties, you need a loose, cultivated soil rich in organic matter.

Excessive soil density leads to deformities of root crops, the seeds germinate worse and slower.

In the fall, when a plot for parsley is being prepared, when digging, 3 to 5 kg of rotted manure or humus are introduced per square meter. After the snow melts, the beds are fertilized in a complex manner. In this case, there are 4 kg of compost, 15 grams of superphosphate, 10 grams of potassium chloride and 20 grams of nitrate per square meter.

Until the seedlings appear above the surface of the soil, the care and cultivation of parsley consists in careful watering and ventilation of the crops under the film. The emerging weeds are removed, and after germination, not only weeding, but also loosening of the soil, feeding and thinning of seedlings, which is carried out at the stage of 2-3 cut true leaves, is added to the care measures for parsley planted in the open field.

Until a full-fledged leaf outlet is formed, parsley is fed twice with infusion of mullein or compost. For 8-10 liters of water, take 1 kg of organic matter, about 15 grams of superphosphate and the same amount of potassium sulfate. In August, plants, especially those grown for root crops, should no longer receive nitrogen-containing fertilizers so that this element does not accumulate in the roots and aboveground parts of the plant.

Parsley planted in open ground with seeds responds well to foliar feeding with microelements, which are also arranged twice during the growing season.

Parsley tolerates hot days well, but greens devoid of moisture become noticeably coarser and tougher, but accumulate aromas and essential oils better:

• If the parsley is to be eaten fresh, the plant needs watering to provide 60–70% soil moisture.
• To get a more flavorful raw material for drying, a couple of weeks before harvesting, parsley is limited to watering.

Collecting cold-resistant parsley can be carried out until late autumn, until frost begins.

At the same time, the roots are harvested for storage. Plants that remain overwintering in the ground are carefully spud and mulched.

Fragrant greens from the Umbrella family belong to biennial plants. Beautiful bright green leaves retain their attractive appearance until the very frost. Parsley is used as an ornamental plant to decorate flower beds, on raised beds, in the preparation of various dishes, and for medicinal purposes. After cultivation, it is subject to conservation, freezing and drying. To get a good harvest, you need to know how to properly plant and care for parsley outdoors. Seeds can be sown not only in grooves, but also between rows of other crops.

Agrotechnical requirements

To grow good parsley outdoors, gardeners follow certain comprehensive measures.The soil must be kept loose and free of weeds, watering should be done abundantly, regularly, do not forget about feeding. Loose soil does not allow the formation of a soil crust, retains moisture, improves air-gas regime, destroys weed growth. Parsley is sown in several stages, it grows successfully at an optimal temperature of +16 C. Each process in the cultivation of spices must be carried out in compliance with agrotechnical requirements, the high yield of root crops depends on this.

To get a good result, you need to know how many years a herb has been growing in one place. This is a typical biennial plant: leaves and root crops appear in the first year of life, and a rosette with a flowering shoot forms in the overwintered culture, and seeds appear at the end of summer. Some gardeners prefer to thin out the seedlings, leaving a distance of 1-2 cm between them. Repeat the procedure after 4-5 weeks. Every two years, it is better to transplant it to areas where tomatoes, zucchini or cucumbers used to grow.

It can be sown on all soils, but parsley will give the best yield on fertile lands. The main thing is that it should be loose. If the prepared area is on the sunny side, the seeds will sprout quickly. The plant loves moist soil, so you need to water it often.

If cumin, carrots or dill were previously grown in the garden, the spice will lag behind in development, after these crops it grows slowly. Experts recommend repeating planting in one area after 4 years.

When to sow parsley

The culture is unpretentious to climatic conditions. Parsley begins to grow from seeds in the open field from mid-April to early May. Each gardener is guided by the climatic indicators of his region. Some plant breeders come to the aid of the lunar calendar, beliefs or omens. In order to constantly have fresh herbs on the table, it is better to plant by container method 2 times a week. Choose a well-lit area for planting. In spring, the soil is saturated with moisture, which is necessary for seeds covered with essential oils.

The culture is grown in two ways: seedlings and seeds, in early spring. You can start sowing seedlings in January, on days when the moon is in the growing phase, and parsley is planted in open ground with seeds when the soil warms up well. The landing date is the first half of May. Ripe greens will appear in 70-80 days. In case of poor germination, parsley is sown. You can sow several times per season. Despite the fact that the root crop is photophilous, it perfectly withstands small frosts.

Seed preparation

The seeds hatch after 20-25 days, earlier periods are hindered by the essential oil with which they are covered. To get a good harvest, gardeners prepare the material in order to dissolve the ether:

• To accelerate germination, germination of the grains, put on a damp cloth and stand for 12-15 hours. Before doing this, rinse with hot water.
• Pour vodka into a small container, put a gauze napkin, and a seed on top. Soak no more than 20 minutes, rinse well and dry.

Techniques promote seed hardening, increase germination and give chances for further successful development.

Before planting the parsley, it is advisable to germinate the material. To do this, you need to use a shallow plastic plate, grains, potassium permanganate, paper napkins.

Pour 1 cm of warm water into the dish, add a little manganese and place napkins on the bottom of the container. Sprinkle the seed on damp paper, cover with a cloth on top, leave for 3-4 days. Wash off manganese, spread on wet gauze. After 2-3 days, the seed will hatch and can be planted in a container on a windowsill, greenhouse or open ground. Gardeners use a simple planting scheme for a cultivated plant: the grains are scattered into grooves that are 15 cm apart, sprinkled with a small amount of earth and watered abundantly with water.

Sowing before winter

Every gardener dreams of getting an early harvest of spices next year, so he tries to plant the seeds of fragrant parsley in the grooves before winter. To hold events, you must adhere to some requirements:

For sowing a plant in open ground, you need the soil to be fertilized and light. Sow into the groove to a depth of 2 cm. The distance between the rows is not more than 20 cm, and between the seeds - 3 cm. The work is performed at a low temperature, when the daily rate reaches + 2C.

To protect the crop from winter frosts, mulching is used. Cover the soil with organic or inorganic material, preferably with straw. With winter sowing, the seed volume should be 30% more than with spring sowing.

Garden bed preparation and sowing

In dense, dry soil or too moist soil, greens grow slowly, gives few leaves, and has poor roots. It is advisable to plant it in the soil, which has been fertilized with humus in the fall, and in the spring, additional minerals such as superphosphate, phosphorus and potassium are added. Beds for parsley planting in winter are chosen on a well-lit hill. Grooves are made on the dug soil, fertilizer is applied, seeds are laid and mulched with straw.

Before spring sowing, grooves with a depth of 2 cm are made in the prepared area, the distance between them is 3-5 cm. After the sown spice is in the soil, the grooves are sprinkled with earth and watered. To keep moisture and warmth for a long time, you need to use a film. It is considered correct to plant parsley seeds in warm soil in sunny weather.

Care features

Parsley is grown, like other cultivated plants, on fertile loose soils with an acceptable acidic or neutral environment. To achieve a good result, they begin to take care of the soil in the fall. For this, the site is carefully looked after. In November, it is necessary to dig up, apply organic superphosphate fertilizers or with potassium salt. Repeat the event in early spring. Urea or saltpeter is added as an additional agent

Watering mode

When growing spices, gardeners like to moisten the soil in the summer after sunset as needed, but abundantly. Achieving a significant increase in yield, good taste and marketability, the main thing is not to harm the first shoots of parsley. It is advisable to lightly loosen the soil the next day. There is an opinion of plant breeders that after planting the seeds, it needs to be watered every day. If the summer is hot and dry, the spice is mulched with peat.

Top dressing

During growth, you can use a mineral mixture of ready-made liquid concentrates Absolute, Ideal, potassium humate "Prompter", etc. The use of the preparations will allow the sprouts to look strong and have a bright green color. Parsley, like other plants, increases yields with careful care.

An important role is played by the correct application of fertilizers - 2 times during the growing season:

1. The first feeding is carried out when 2-3 leaves are formed on the stem. Parsley will grow with a strong root system if, after planting the spice, the soil is saturated with nitrogen fertilizer with 50-60 g of nitrate per 10 m2.
2. For the second feeding, a complex phosphorus-potassium agent is suitable. To do this, mix superphosphate (70 g), potassium salt (50 g) and evenly distribute over 10 m2. By feeding the spice, the gardener will not be left without greenery.

Diseases and pests

The cultivated plant must be carefully monitored so that insects and diseases do not destroy the entire parsley crop.

Cercosporosis

The causative agent is the mushroom Cercospora depres-sa Berk, et Br. It affects foliage, on which yellow, dirty-brown spots of irregular, round or angular shape with a diameter of about 6 mm appear. The affected plant lags behind in development.

To prevent parsley from turning yellow, you need to monitor the crop rotation, select seeds only from strong root crops, systematically loosen the soil, and remove weeds.

If you notice the first signs of the disease, spray the plant with a fungicide with a 1% Bordeaux solution. To prepare it, dilute 100 g of copper sulfate and 150 g of lime - both substances separately in 1 liter of water. Bring the volume of each product to 5 liters. Combine the resulting solutions, strain. Spray the affected areas of the crop.

Downy mildew (downy mildew)

The causative agent is the lower fungus peronospora. If yellowish, light green spots appear on the parsley leaves on the upper side, and a gray-violet bloom is observed below, this indicates peronosporosis. The lesions increase in size over time, merge, the leaves wither, dry and fall apart. To prepare the medicinal mixture, take 50-80 g of sulfur, dissolve in 10 liters of water, strain, process the parsley, as well as the soil under it.

In order to prevent the appearance of the disease, preventive measures are taken. To do this, in the spring, you need to cultivate the ground with 1% manganese solution or 2-3% - copper sulfate, then dig up the soil. For soil disinfection, you can use biological preparations Fitosporin-M, Gamair or Alirin-B. You also need to monitor crop rotation and resume sowing in this area no earlier than in 4-5 years.

White rot

The causative agent of the disease enters from the bottom of the stems through the soil. Discoloration of the leaves of the plant occurs, wateriness and light bloom appear in them. White rot can appear suddenly when the air temperature drops to + 10-12 C, and the humidity rises. To prevent disease and strengthen the plant, foliar dressing is used from zinc sulfate (1 g), copper sulfate (2 g), urea (10 g), which are dissolved in 10 liters of water. Observe the crop rotation, remove infected specimens, pickle seeds before sowing.

Rust

The causative agent of the disease is the mushroom Puccinia petroselini (DC.) Lindr. Below, on the leaves, stems, you can see yellow-brown pads that surround the orange etsidia, they lead to a thickening of the plant tissue. Fungal disease mainly appears in early summer.

To prevent this disease from ruining, you need to use the recommendations:

• strictly follow the crop rotation and return the parsley to this area no earlier than after 4 years;
• before planting, in 2-3 weeks, warm up the seeds in hot water for 30-35 minutes, dry;
• for spraying use fungicides Strobi, Topaz, Horus, Quadris and others. Gardeners often use Bordeaux liquid (copper sulfate 100 g + lime 100 g per 10 l of water) or copper oxychloride (40 g per 10 l);
• to avoid re-rusting, destroy diseased plants.

White spot (septoria)

The fungus Septoria petroselini Desm causes the disease, it affects the peduncles, from where the disease passes to the seeds. Most plantings suffer from septoria at the end of the growing season, especially if the weather is damp. The main signs are numerous spots of irregular shape on the leaves. Their color is from light yellow to brown, with dark edges.

Diseased plants must be carefully removed from the ground and burned. Do not leave the remains of leaves on the ground, as the pathogen remains on them. For prevention, it is recommended to sow parsley in a ventilated area; there must be good drainage in the soil so that water does not stagnate.

The culture is also affected by insect pests such as carrot flies and celery flies. To save the harvest, the chemicals Arrivo, Tsiper, Sharpey and others are used. In addition, tobacco dust, ash, slaked lime are mixed and parsley is added between the rows.

In the fight against pests, you can use folk remedies. To do this, mix tobacco waste (1 kg), warm water (10 l) and laundry soap (30 g). Boil the substance for two hours, filter and process the parsley and the earth around it. Modern drugs are used not only when a disease occurs, but also for prophylactic purposes.

Harvesting

When three bunches of leaves have formed on the stem of the fragrant spice, you can start harvesting. It depends on the type of parsley. After 70-80 days, the grown plant has a mature structure and is ready to be harvested. The stem of the grass is cut at the root. It is not necessary to leave the petioles, as they inhibit the development of young shoots. If several stalks are needed, cut from the outside of the root crop. This promotes the growth of the stems. Parsley can be harvested before the first frost at an air temperature of -5 ° C.
If you adhere to the minimum requirements for sowing, growing and caring for a fragrant plant, you can achieve a good harvest.
