Day 28 - Fixing Splattered Coriander

I don't quite know what happened to my coriander plant. It looked nice and perky at Bunnings but the 5 minute trip home knocked it about a bit. When I planted it, all of the stalks decided to lie down flat. I thought that some sun would pick it up, however the sun decided to hide for a couple of weeks. Thinking I was going to lose the plant if I didn't act, I decided to go in for some large scale pruning. I cut off the last 80% of every stalk, chopped them into 5mm lengths and left on the soil (my primitive attempt at mulching). The plant loved it! New growth appeared the next day and went vertical immediately. Now the coriander looks more like a bush than a couple of stalks lying on the ground.
