Reseeds? I'm obviously doing something wrong. Maybe not giving it a chance to reseed.
I have it started indoors with dozens of other oddities right now.

I plant in a bed with dill, parsley, par-cel, cumin,...next to my big basil bed. I'll move one
to my 'come again' bed with sage and tarragon. (the bed I don't winter cover, just mulch
in the Fall and again Spring.)

I have a stack of old red cups I no longer use for tomatoes that I cut around their middle,
label, push into the bed, then plant with some soaked direct seed as well. I can mulch
right up to the red cup edges. (I can get up, spin around, and totally forget what I've
just planted minutes before, )

Cilantro is another I just can't crack the code. Grow it all winter indoors but outside it
just bolts...even the 'slow bolt' variety. Fortunately it is just 50cents at the market.
