You can substitute 1 tablespoon dill seed for 3 dill heads. The flavor will be less pungent than if you use fresh dill.
In general you should halve the quantity when using a dried herb. This is because a lot of the fresh herb is water, and the flavour is concentrated when you dry it.
When herbs are dried, the oils which create the flavor and aroma are concentrated in the material that remains when the water is removed. Dried herbs are therefore stronger than fresh ones. Try using half as much dried as fresh or twice as much fress as dried and adjust to taste. Specifically two tablespoons of dried equals one quarter cup fresh,
For rosemary, the ratio is three to one, fresh chopped to dried. So if your recipe calls for 2 tsp. of dried rosemary and you would rather use fresh, you will need three times as much, or two tablespoons of fresh chopped rosemary leaves.
It is less because the dryness make the leaves smaller.(The leaves curl up.)
