There will be much more juicy and aromatic greenery if you choose the right planting material.

It will grow right on the windowsill in the middle of winter and will perfectly complement a salad prepared for a birthday, February 14 or March 8.

A common mistake is to choose a large bulb, believing that this will produce more feathers.

In fact, this is not so. You should not look at the size. It is important that the planting material has several rudiments from which the greenery will grow.

It's easy to determine. You need to take a knife and cut off the top of the bulb. The presence of 2-3 rudiments indicates that the bulb will release the maximum amount of feathers.
