According to the chemical composition, dill fruits are distinguished by a high content of essential oil. The essential oil is mobile, colorless or slightly yellowish with a herbaceous-spicy typical dill smell with a floral-green note. Its main component (up to 50%) is carvone, and the main component of the essential oil of the leaves is phellandrene. The oil has a high antimicrobial activity.

Lotions from the infusion of dill are used for eye diseases and pustular skin lesions. Cultivation. Any vegetable crop can be a precursor for dill propagation, and it is better to sow it between rows of cucumbers. Therefore, the ground for it should not be specially prepared. Dill seeds can be sown in late fall or early spring. They are embedded in the soil to a depth of 2-3 cm. They germinate at a temperature of 3-5 ° C. When sown with dry seeds, seedlings appear in 12-14 days. Dill blooms in July, seeds ripen in August. Plant care consists of steaming, loosening and watering. In the spring, after germination, nitrogen fertilizers are applied - 10 g / m2. In the phase of real leaves, the plant is thinned out, leaving a distance of 8-10 cm between them, and fed with phosphorus and potash fertilizers at the rate of 10-15 g/m2. During the growing season, you can remove the dill several times and always have fresh herbs on the table. For daily use, dill is harvested at a young age, with a plant height of 20-35 cm. The cut stems, after separating the leaves from them, are cut into pieces 5-7 cm long and dried separately from the leaves. The greens are dried, spreading out in a thin layer in the shade, turning over from time to time. Dry leaves are stored in a tightly closed container, dried green stems are stored in plastic bags. For pickling cucumbers, sauerkraut and other pickles, dill is harvested after flowering during seed ripening, when 60-70% of them become brown in color. Cut plants are tied in small sheaves and left to ripen. Dried stems with seed umbrellas are threshed. Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Authors: Yurchenko L.A., Vasilkevich S.I.
