Default Coriander

Hello,

I grow coriander in a pot on the window-ledge & it does fine there.

It is starting to produce little flowers. Should I leave them on? or
should I remove them to encourage growth?. I assume I can eat them OK?

Thanks


If you leave them, they should produce seeds, which are also useful in
cooking. However you can save them, and sow them next year.

I grow coriander in the garden - last year I bought a plant in a garden
centre, but this year about 6 plants have grown from the seeds which fell
off last year's plant. I currently have massive 80cm tall coriander plants
which are beginning to flower too.
