Dill
Dill
Dill is often grown in the vegetable garden for use in pickles. Dill takes 70 days to mature but is usually cut before the seed matures. Sow seed in a sunny location when the ground warms up in the spring. Rows are 3 feet apart with plants thinned to 8 inch spacings. When grown for seed, cut plants one foot from the ground when the lower seeds mature. Gather the plants in dry weather and hang them in a dry place until the seed is separated. Alternatively, spread out the plants in a dry, airy, shaded place to dry.
