Growing Coriander, also Cilantro , chinese parsley

I have struggled to keep coriander producing in the past too (i.e goes to seed very fast) However, the best way I have recently found is to plant seed around other leafy vegetables, where it stays moist and shaded. I have had ALOT of coriander come up under and around my beetroot and it is thriving happily there... I just pick leaves as I need them which keeps the plants small enough to be happy under the other plants.
