The Planting Table
The
Planting Table is the
next important system in the business of gardening, especially for the
beginner. In it one can see at a glance all the details of the
particular
treatment each vegetable requires-- when to sow, how deep, how far
apart
the rows should be, etc.
Take
a quick look at:
We
remember how many trips
from garden to house to hunt through catalogues for just such
information
we made in our first two seasons of gardening. How much time, just at
the
very busiest season of the whole year, such a simple thing like
planting
table would have saved!
The Planting Table prepared
for one's own use should show, besides the information given, the
varieties
of each vegetable which experience has proved best adapted to one's own
needs.
The table shown in our example gives such a list; varieties which are
for the most part standard favorites and all of which, with me, have
proven
reliable, productive and of good quality.
Other good sorts will be
found
described lather. Such a table should be mounted on cardboard and kept
where it may readily be referred to at planting time.

SOME REFERENCE NOTES
FROM THE TABLES
#
1 In the vicinity of New
York City. Each 100 miles north or south will make a difference of 5 to
7 days later or earlier.
#
2 Advice for sowing the
seed: It will take three to six weeks before plants are ready. Hence
the
advantage of using the seed-bed. For instance, you can start your late
cabbage about June 15th, to follow the first crop of peas, which should
be cleared off by the 10th of July.
#
3 Distances given are those
at which the growing _plants_ should stand, after thinning. Seed in
drills
should be sown several times as thick.
#
4 Best started in seed-bed,
and afterward transplanted; but may be sown when wanted and afterward
thinned
to the best plants. |
