Be careful with growing dill, they call it dillWEED for a reason, it's very
invasive. Even when grown in containers its seeds will spread everywhere.
It will establish itself and it's near impossible to eradicate, your
neighbors will hate you. I suggest finding a vacant lot somewhere far from
others gardens and plant your dillweed there. If you want fresh dillweed
for pickling (can't think of any other use for fresh) buy it from the green
grocer, otherwise keep dried on hand.
