Seed Needs Culantro Seeds for Planting Mexican Coriander - Non-GMO Heirloom & Untreated Culinary/Medicinal Herbs to Grow an Indoor/Outdoor Herb Garden (1 Pack)

It took little longer to grow, but it did grow. It was good quality, the aroma of the leaves and the taste was really good.

Nothing sprouted i mean not one seeds didn’t look good from the start had a feeling they were gonna be duds i was correct

They germinated better than average. Beautiful plant and tasty in soups

It gave me some trouble trying to get the seed to germinate. But then I realized it's from a tropical region. So when the temperature outside warmed up to be regularly more in the 80's during the day and only in the 70's at night, I put some outside to sprout before bringing back inside for my hydroponic herb garden. Sill it took almost 4 weeks before anything showed. One of the things many seed companies leave off of their packets is the Germination temperature. There are different ranges touted on line, but the one I'm going with is 80-85°F (27-29°C). And the average germination time is long. Ranging from 14 to as long as 30 days. Plus the seeds should not be covered as they need light to sprout. And they must remain moist. If you google information on Culantro, be sure google didn't change it to Cilantro, or include Cilantro in the results.

Culantro is not easy to cultivate outside the tropics but it can be done. The germinate rate will always be low compared to your typical garden herb. I have good success germinating these seeds in my IDOO and AeroGarden propagators. I put three or four seeds in each plug, drop in a dozen and end up with three or four viable plants at a time - after a time. Success requires fresh seeds. If you have seeds left over at the end of the season you may as well toss them. Next year they simply won't grow. Have patience; culantro takes its time to grow - it's as if it has a mind of its own and knows your frustration tolerance. :) If you decide to sprout the seeds in a tray you have to spray the seeds several times a day to keep them damp as if it were a nice, hot, damp tropical day. Once they sprout and grow true leaves just keep the soil slightly damp. I've had little success with sprouting trays - I end up with green algae and mold but rarely a plant. That's not the seed's fault. It just isn't consistently hot and humid enough where I live in Zone 9b to simulate the tropics without an assist from the aquaponic propagators. In the end, with a boatload of patience you'll have a plant that is well worth the effort. It will last two years, does not bolt like celantro and you only have to pick a few leaves at a time to flavor your dish. The culantro leaves do pack a huge flavor punch. Have fun!

Excellent quality seeds. The cilantro seeds germinated quickly and the plants grew strong. The package arrived in good condition and included easy-to-follow instructions. A great product for having fresh cilantro at home.
