water can stand in it and plant the seed in the bottom, covering 
at first only one inch deep. When the plants are two inches 
high. cultivate; and as they grow, gradually fill in the trench.

supported by poultry netting, strings or brush. Water should 
be applied thoroughly once or twice a week early in the morning
