I plan to can pickles when they're ready for harvesting and would like to grow my own pickling spices. What would you suggest?
Choose garlic, coriander, and dill, which are great choices for all kinds of pickling. Plant dill directly into your garden, as soon as the soil can be worked. Plant in rows 1/4 inch deep. Plant garlic cloves early in the spring, setting cloves 2 inches deep in moist, sandy soil. Sow coriander directly into the garden, 1 inch deep.
