Planting Instructions

2. Soil Preparation: Choose well-draining soil with good organic content. Both fennel and dill prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil pH.
3. Sowing Depth: Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in moist soil. Lightly cover with soil and keep the planting area consistently moist until germination.
4. Sunlight: Provide full sun for optimal growth. These herbs thrive in bright, sunny locations.
5. Spacing: Space fennel plants about 12-18 inches apart and dill plants about 8-12 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.

Growing and Care

• Watering: Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering frequency once the plants are established.
• Fertilization: Fertilize with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth.
• Pruning: Harvest leaves regularly to encourage bushier growth and remove any flower heads to extend the harvest period for leaves.
• Pest and Disease Management: Monitor for common pests such as aphids and caterpillars. Use organic pest control methods if necessary.

Harvesting

• Fennel: Harvest leaves as needed once the plant is established. For bulbs, harvest when they reach the desired size. Seeds can be collected when the flower heads dry out.
• Dill: Harvest leaves as needed for fresh use. Collect seeds once the flower heads turn brown and dry out.
