If you've got a slug problem I'd treat that first before tying again, you could use something environmentally friendly such as nematodes or the eco-friendly slug pellets. I'm not sure that coriander likes being moved/transplanted, at least mine doesn't. So I'd sow it direct where you want it to grow.
I let mine grow at random across the veg plot; each year I let some plants go to seed, and once they're dry I just throw the seeds across the plot. Plants pop up wherever, and I just let them grow amongst the other veg, we always have some somewhere. I suppose the slugs and greenfly can't find all my plants at once! Happy to send you some of my spare seeds if you PM me.
