Skip the seeds: Grow endless cilantro from cuttings at home

Growing cilantro at home doesn’t always require seeds. Gardeners can propagate the herb from cuttings with a few simple steps. This method saves time and ensures a steady supply of fresh leaves.

To start, select healthy stems around 4-6 inches long with several sets of leaves. Herb scissors work best for making clean cuts. After trimming, remove the lower leaves to stop them rotting in water.

This propagation method offers a low-cost way to keep cilantro growing indoors. With proper care, the herb will thrive and provide fresh leaves for months. Regular water changes and indirect light are key to success.
