Choose a location with well-draining soil and partial sunlight, as cilantro prefers cooler temperatures. Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of about 6 inches and removing any debris. Sow the seeds directly into the soil about 1/4 inch deep and 4-6 inches apart. Water the seeds gently, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. As the seedlings emerge, thin them to about 6-8 inches apart to give them room to grow. Regularly water and ensure they receive adequate sunlight, especially in warmer climates, to prevent premature bolting. Harvest leaves once they reach a usable size, and pinch off flowers to prolong leaf production. With care, you'll enjoy a steady supply of fresh cilantro for your culinary delights.
