Sob! I think the coriander plant we planted first might have bolted. Not yet having grown much I can’t be too sure, but there appears to be a distinct lack of new leaves appearing, while there are a couple of big, thick, darker stalks with some feathery leaves on the top. To me that makes me suspect it has.<\/p>\n

I also suspect from reading a few sites that it’s probably my fault.\u00a0 I think it might have been due to either replanting it (unlikely, I think) or I’ve perhaps let it get too dry now and then (quite likely!).\u00a0 It is sharing the pot with the now massive parsley and as there have been some really hot days a while ago I think I might have just left watering it a bit long.\u00a0 It’s always hard to know how damp the pots are. Must start sticking my finger in more often.<\/p>\n

It’s a good job that I planted another few seeds a few weeks later.\u00a0 I’ll just have to keep an eye on those plants and see if I can avoid the same happening to them.<\/p>\n

The only good news in all of this is that if it has bolted, and we get lots of flowers that don’t get blown off in the very windy weather we seem to have at the moment, and if we do get a a bunch of seeds, and if we do manage to catch all the seeds somehow, then we can use those in our cooking anyway! Stay tuned for that…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
