When I saw my herb on day 39 I noticed that most of the leaves had changed into the parsley like leaves with only a few left of the rounded smooth type leaves. My coriander was a lot bigger than before and today it had the strongest scent of all days because it had grown lots since I last saw it.

it had a much stronger scent than before.
