Seed it once a week or every 10 days. It grows fast & as soon as it makes seed it is Coriander.
Pull the whole plant just before flowering.
No need to start plants indoors. Works better to direct seed.

Hi Widaman, I grew cilantro one year and let it go to seed. Now every year I have seed which I either let fall where they are or pick them and then throw on the ground in the area where I want them (they come up/grow when the temperature is right for them.) Once you have some grow and then go to seed, you will have plenty of cilantro when the weather is the right temperature and there is rain.

This article has nothing to do with growing cilantro, but it is very interesting as to why people either like or dislike cilantro.
