Cilantro seems to be a pandemic recently and I often hear it. (^ ◇ ^)

Cilantro is a vegetable that likes and dislikes, but (I am not good at it)

I decided to grow it because I heard it was delicious when added to curry as a spice.

As always, I checked the materials.

Cilantro is strong in cold and weak in heat ...
Speaking of Cilantro, Tom Yan Kung, Speaking of Tom Yan Kung is Thailand, Speaking of Thailand is subtropical!
I was surprised by the heat.
And the biggest difficulty in cultivation is that the germination rate is low.
Well, (^ ◇ ^) Anyway, I will start growing Cilantro by trying to grow and see.

This time, because I would like to grow by hydroponics, I first made a cultivation floor.

(Daiiso (One Dollar shop) bought a draining container (size is 30cm x 45mm)) Spread the center hydroballs evenly over it.
Finally, lightly sprinkle with palm peat. (^ ◇ ^))

First of all, Cilantro is a vegetable that is hard to germinate, so first celebrate! Aim for germination.

Cilantro seeds are divided in half.
( Note : Instead of splitting the seed in half, split the hard shell that encloses the seed in half.)
If you want to increase the germination rate, you should soak it in water for a day. (^ ◇ ^)

Let's try sowing seeds.
