Parsley prefers fertile, deep-arable, loose loamy and sandy soils.
The best predecessors: cucumber, tomato, onion.
Sowing seeds is carried out at several times: in early spring (late April - early May), before winter (October-November), in mid-summer (late June).
Winter sowing is carried out with dry seeds. In spring, parsley is sown in moist furrows at a distance of 3-4 cm in a row and 20-30 cm between rows.
Crops from above are mulched with peat. To accelerate seed germination, crops are covered with a film, which is removed when shoots appear.
Parsley care includes weed control, two thinnings of crops, top dressing after thinning, which are combined with the next watering.
