How to grow:
1. Plant the seeds in moist, rich soil about 6 to 8 inches apart. For thinner plants, plant about 6 to 10 inches apart. Try to pick an area that is weed-free; that way, you’ll be able to see the parsley sprouting after about 3 weeks.
Be sure to water the seeds often while they germinate so that they don’t dry out.
2. When the leaf stems have three segments, parsley is ready to be harvested.
Cut leaves from the outer portions of the plant whenever you need them. Leave the inner portions of the plant to mature.
