Effects of organic soil ammendments, seeding density, cultivar selection, and postharvest practices on cilantro (Coriandrum sativum L) yield quality.

The effects of soil amendments (fish emulsion as soil or foliar treatment, composted or dehydrated manure, linseed or soyabean meal, commercial blend 1 or 2, or leaf compost at 50 lb/acre), seedling density (3, 13, 23, 33 and 53 plants/foot) and postharvest storage (storage of plants with or without roots in sealed plastic bags or water) on 6 C. sativum cultivars (Jantar, Coriander, Pokey Joe, Santo, American Long and a cultivar from the Dominican Republic) were studied during 1999 in an organic farm in Massachusetts, USA. The visual quality of C. sativum with or without roots did not significantly vary. Plants stored in the sun, whether in plastic bags or water, had lower visual quality index than those stored in the shade. The yield was not significantly affected by the soil amendment, probably due to the high soil organic matter (9.7%). The increase in seedling density resulted in the increase in plant height and fresh weight. Jantar was the most bolting resistant cultivar. The cultivar from the Dominican Republic was most susceptible to bolting.
