Cilantro thrives best in full sun, ideally receiving 6 to 8 hours of sunlight each day. However, in extremely hot climates, it can benefit from some afternoon shade to prevent bolting and prolong its growing season. Planting cilantro in well-drained soil with adequate moisture is also essential for optimal growth.

What happens if you grow a plant in the shade?

It depends on the plant, some love sun, others shade. Hosta, for example, loves shade, and thrive with no sun at all. Typically those plants that do well on shade have large leaves, allowing them to get more light for photosynthesis without actual sun. Sun loving plants including most vegetables and fruit trees will have a hard time in shade, and grow long, leggy thin branches as they try to get to better light.
