Tetra dill
Overall, tetra dill grows to be more robust, taller and bushier than standard dill. It grows a lot of leaves and is therefore ideal for bunches. The sowing time, use, amount of seed needed and row spacing is all the same as for Dill K20. Dill has a relatively long germination phase and thrives in cooler weather. It flowers quickly in higher temperatures.
