This plant helps to normalize blood pressure, strengthen bones, control blood cholesterol levels due to the content of phthalides, and is also able to prevent many diseases.

Features of growing celery

This plant does not like deep planting. Celery needs frequent watering, and do not forget to periodically loosen the soil. This will save the plant from the crust that forms with frequent watering. When the plant is strengthened, it is recommended to spud it, but this is true only for leafy varieties.

What should be the soil

Choose light, loose and fertile soil with a neutral or slightly alkaline soil.

For planting, give preference to a place where the sun will fall.

How and when to sow celery

Start planting seedlings in mid or late February, as celery has a long growing season of about 120-190 days.
