Hello

I hope everyone is ok, I'm coming here just for these 3 :)
Well ı planted parsley, dill and ruccula..

However ı should have did something wrong.

Dills get yellow and dead
Parsleys were growing than ı think heavy rain killed them

But I never know if I should remove them to another place which I don't have bigger pot yet.
Or should I take care them in house?
I live in Lisbon, we sometimes have rain a lot.
Not that hot on my balcony, sunny.
I'm trying to find where did I do the wrong _

So next time, now I will seed fewer to the pot and will watch.

Does the heavy rain kill them ? I learnt this now
And should I cover with stretch in the beginning while sprouting?

Right now the parsleys and rucculas like this and not growing

I'm really beginner please dont be angry with me that I killed these dear gals :(

See my previous post : Turkish seeds of Dills

I could start over ..I still have seeds.
Thank you for tips.

Yes, way fewer per pot...like three or four. There is nothing wrong with your existing seedlings except they are too crowded and ready to be transplanted into larger containers which must have drainage holes. Then it's time for gentle feeding unless your potting soil contains fertilizer.

Rain itself doesn't harm the seedlings, but if it's too heavy it could dislodge the tiny roots, in which case covering with a breathable fabric would be helpful.

The parsleys are yellow because they are overcrowded and competing for nutrients. Do those containers have drainage holes? If not, and they were in the rain, they could be waterlogged.

The problem with sowing them so thickly is that you'll often destroy the roots trying to separate them. Instead, separate them into clumps of several seedlings, plant the clump, then clip off all but one or two of the healthiest green sprouts with scissors — don't try to separate each little sprout. You'll lose all but a few, so if you have more seeds, sow them now, well spaced.
