Best Planting Time for Parsley Seeds in the UK:

• Indoors: Start seeds indoors from February to April to give plants a head start.
• Outdoors: Sow directly outdoors from March to August once the soil has warmed, for a steady supply of fresh leaves.

Ideal Growing Conditions:

• Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade.
• Soil: Thrives in well-drained, fertile soil with a pH of 6.0 to 7.0. Keep the soil moist for optimal growth.
• Spacing: Thin seedlings to about 20 cm apart to allow for healthy growth.

Harvesting Tips:

• Begin harvesting when the plant is about 10-15 cm tall. Pick leaves from the outside of the plant to encourage continuous growth.
• Regular harvesting will promote bushy growth and help prevent the plant from bolting.
