Bolting - How many ways can this word be used?
I can think of a couple different ways... But the way this word is being used is this,
a plant wanting to flower.. Or my favorite, a growth behavior in a plant.
My understanding is that it's not just the weather that makes the plant want to bolt, but the soil gets too hot and makes the dynamics of the plant "think" it is time to die. So when the plant is in this stage, it goes to flower to set seed, thus finishes its circle of living, so new offspring can begin the next generation.
(Take that all !! Ha.) Im just kidding..
Yes, most already know this, but when I put it in terms like this, I feel like I understand just a bit better.
This is my thinking so research is key to getting the answer...
If I were to try and seed Cilantro, I am most certain it wouldn't do much..
But if the weather were to be of gentle nature,
Soak your seeds in water for 24 to 48 hours, then let them set out and dry, seed them in a good seed starting mix. You are off to a great start. Keep them in light shade at the hottest part of the day.
