Distinguishing between small coriander and celery plants can be a little tricky, especially when they're still young and have similar characteristics. Here's how to tell them apart:
Leaves:
Coriander has finer, more feather-like leaves. They are often more delicate and light.
Celery stalks have broader, serrated leaves, often heart-shaped at the base. They have a crisper texture and are generally sturdier than those of cilantro.
Smell:
Cilantro has a strong, distinct smell, with a fresh, lemony aroma.
Celery stalks have a sweeter, slightly herbaceous smell, often reminiscent of celery.
Stems:
Cilantro stalks are generally thinner and more delicate, with alternate leaves along the stem.
Celery stalks are thicker and hollow, with leaves clustered in clumps at the base of the plant.
Growth:
Coriander tends to grow in dense clumps, with numerous stalks emerging from a central point.
Celery stalks have a more vertical growth habit, with a single thick central stalk from which the leaves branch out.

Keep the soil in your vegetable garden moist by watering it every day, preferably in the morning when temperatures are not too high. Be careful not to pour water too quickly when watering; use a gentle flow to avoid drowning the plants.
