. . . Celery after bunch onions . . . 



This plan has been used extensively on muck soils in 

 the growing of the green varieties of celery. Late celery 

 is planted in every fifth row after the onions in that row 

 are large enough to bunch. The other four rows are 

 permitted to mature. When an early variety of celery 

 is planted and boards are used for blanching, the celery 

 rows need not be more than 2 feet (or less) apart. Then 

 it will be possible to plant only one row of onions be- 

 tween the celery.
