We all experience life differently, nor can we help or choose the life that we are born to. I think it's pretty great that OP has given up his so called privilege to learn something new about the world he lives in. As hard as hard physical work can be, there's also something satisfying about putting your all in every day, the blood sweat and tears. Sitting at a desk might make you lots of money but it can drive most people insane. I used to work in IT, I've studied various different subjects in UNI, I'm now a chef, didn't study for either of those in college, I applaud anyone who has the guts to do something new. We have one life after all.

I hold it over the steam of a kettle to test calibration on either end (hold switch down so it boils continuously for a few seconds while you test), other being the ice bath of course :)

I've always marveled at the night sky and relish visiting the countryside away from light pollution. What's it like to look at the milky way in space with your own eyes?

We recommend using a cast iron pan or stainless steel pan, even though these are not non-stick.

Treated and used correctly, these can indeed function as non-stick cookware. For acidic based foods I'd recommend an enamel dutch oven/pan.

Pretty much what has already been suggested. The plant generally bolts when it reacts to warm weather as it typically prefers cooler but moist conditions. If you aren't growing it within temperate seasons your best bet is to keep planting and harvesting every couple of weeks as you go. You can collect the seeds for cooking or canned and pickled vegetables etc, or allow them to dry and ground for your own coriander spice. You can freeze the leaves as well, some people like to put herbs in ice cube trays for easily accessible stock cubes of sorts but I personally just throw a bag in there and use it as is. I also like to harvest a bunch of leaves and keep them in the fridge in a glass of water.
