Step-by-step

  1. 1. Direct sow 0.25″ deep, 6″ apart. Soil should be at least 60°F before planting. Black plastic mulch laid two weeks ahead helps in cool springs.
  2. 2. Mulch and water consistently. 2" of straw or wood chip around the base. Drip line at surface. 1" per week including rain.
  3. 3. Harvest around day 55. Lets itself go to seed and self-sows — designate a "dill corner" and forget about it.
