- Growing tips: Start cilantro seeds indoors in seedling trays or small seedling pots with seed starting soil that has essential nutrients in it, 3-4 weeks prior to last frost. In cooler climates, it can also be grown in late fall. Keep the soil moist for quick germination. Make sure to keep the young seedlings under good light to have strong plants with sturdy, healthy stems and leaves. Transplant after last frost in well-drained, fertile soil enrichened with compost and other amendments. Fertilizing cilantro later in the growing season usually isn’t necessary.
