Start by selecting a location with well-drained soil and partial to full sunlight. Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of about 6 inches and removing any debris or weeds. Sow the seeds directly into the soil, scattering them evenly and covering them lightly with a thin layer of soil or compost. Space the seeds about 12 to 15 inches apart to allow room for growth. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period, which typically takes 2 to 3 weeks. Once the seedlings emerge, thin them to maintain a final spacing of about 8 to 12 inches apart. Water the parsley regularly, especially during dry periods, and fertilize with a balanced fertilizer every 4 to 6 weeks.
