Dill - Sprinter - 500 g - For quick fresh harvests - Fresh Seeds

Sprinter dill is an exceptionally productive variety characterized by a dense, bushy habit and intensely green, feathery leaves. The plants remain in the leaf phase for a long time thanks to delayed flowering, ensuring a long harvest period of aromatic greenery. Sprinter performs excellently when used fresh, and retains its distinct scent and taste after drying or freezing, making it a universal seasoning for many dishes.

Sowing

Seeds are sown directly into the ground on a carefully prepared, loosened, and weed-free site. To maintain continuous harvests, it is worth carrying out successive sowings every 2-3 weeks. After sowing, the soil should be gently pressed down to ensure the seeds have good contact with the ground.

Sowing depth

Dill seeds are placed at a depth of 1-2 cm and covered with a thin layer of soil. Shallow sowing promotes uniform emergence and facilitates maintaining constant soil moisture.

Sowing time into the ground

The optimal sowing time falls from early spring to mid-summer, usually from March to the middle of July. In cooler regions, the first sowings should begin once the soil has warmed up noticeably.

Spacing

Rows are marked out approximately every 30 cm. After emergence, plants should be thinned, leaving 5-10 cm spacing in the row. Maintaining this spacing improves airflow within the crop, facilitates care, and limits the risk of disease.

Site

Sprinter dill grows best in full sun, on fertile, humus-rich, medium-compact, and well-drained soils. The substrate should be moderately moist but not waterlogged. It is worth incorporating organic fertilisation into the cultivation, which supports intense growth and high quality of the green mass.

Cultivation

Cultivation is uncomplicated and requires no specialized treatments. Key aspects include regular watering during dry periods and systematic weeding. Frequent, successive harvesting of young shoots stimulates the plants to regrow and extends the usage period of the bed. This variety develops seed stalks late, allowing it to remain suitable for harvesting green for a long time.

Harvest time

Harvests are carried out from May to October, depending on the sowing date. The best quality is obtained by cutting young leaves and shoots as needed. Regular harvesting ensures a delicate structure and full aroma.

Usage

Fresh Sprinter dill perfectly enhances the taste of soups, cold soups, sauces, fish dishes, and potato meals. It is indispensable in marinades and preserves. After drying or freezing, it remains intensely aromatic, allowing its qualities to be enjoyed outside the season.
