Coriander Finished

Just as it was starting to get going after re-potting, the coriander has started to bolt (run to seed). So cut up and put in freezer. Still, we have had our money's worth out of it.

Coriander is notorious for bolting at this time of year, but this variety was supposed to be resistant. Just shows that we cannot always go by what is written on the packet.

Seeding is mostly a photoperiodic (controlled by daylength) response. Had the season been a bit warmer, there would have been a much heavier crop by now. Maybe next year?
