Z 8 2 The Gardeners Kalendar. June. 



The weeds which now come up in moft 

 gardens are, Wild Orach, Nightfliade, Thorn- 

 apple, Groundfel, Sow-thiftles, Shepherd's- 

 purfe, Dandelion, Pimpernel, &c» which, if 

 permitted to grow, will many of them foon 

 filed their feeds, whereby the ground will be 

 plentifully flocked with them, and by their 

 growth among crops, will foon get the better 

 of them, and fpoil v/hatever plants are near 

 them. 



You may nov/ tranfplant Leeks out of the 

 feed-beds into the places where they are to re- 

 main, obferving to water them until they have 

 taken root : this is often praftifed in fmall gar^ 

 dens, where any early crop of Beans or Cauli- 

 flowers has been produced on the fame ground, 

 before the Leeks are planted on it. 



The young Afparagus-beds, which wero 

 planted in March, fhould be kept very clean 

 from weeds, which, if permitted to grovt^>_ will 

 foon weaken the roots, and fometirnes deftroy 

 them. For wherever a large weed happens 

 to ftand near any of the Afparagus plants, 

 their roots v/ill infinuate themfelves between 

 thofe of the Afparagus ; fo that in pulling up 

 the weeds, the roots of Afparagus are many 

 tirnes drawn cut of the ground with thern.
