oiT, and let the plants enjoy the benefit of warm iliowers 

 of rain. 



If there are more than one or two plants under each 

 glafs, let them be removed the beginning of this monlh ; 

 for rvvo plants at moil, under a glafs, is fuihcient; but if 

 the glaiTes are fmall, one plant under each will b*^ enough. 

 .Plant thofe which you take from under the glafles, into 

 an open fpot, at the dillance above mentioned. 



Where cauliflower plants were raifed from feeds fcwn 

 the lall month, they ihou'd now be pricked out into a bed 

 of rich earth, in a warm fituation ; but where a moderate 

 hot-bed can be obtained, it will be m.oij advifeabie to 

 prick them therein, v/hich will forward them greatly. 

 Make the bed about fifteen or eight-en inches high, and 

 put a frame on, or arch it over with hoops; lay on fix 

 inches depth of rich earth, prick the plants therein, twoor 

 three inches apart, and give them a little water. Put on 

 the glaiTes, or a covering of mats every night, but take 

 them off every mild day. 



By pricking out the plants on a little warmth, it will 

 bring them forward to be fit to tranfplant for good the 

 middle or latter end of next month, and they will pro- 

 duce their heads in July. 



Cauliilower-feed may be fown the beginning of this 

 month, if it was not done in February; obferving to fow 

 them in a flight hot-bed, as was then direded ; it will 

 bring the plants up foon, and forward them greatly. 



N. B. Thefe feeds may be fown in a bed of rich earth, 

 in a warm fituation, in the natural ground ; they will 

 grow freely, but the plants will not be fo forward by ten. 

 or twelve days, or a fortnight, as they would be if the 

 feed was fown on a little heat. 



The plants from this fowing produce flowers or heads 

 for ufe in Auguif.
