CALIFORNIA WONDER 



PEPPERS 



Culture — Planting lime, Southern States: 

 Spring, December to March in hotbeds; in 

 open ground, March to June; Fall, August 

 to November, in open ground. Two ounces 

 will produce about 1500 plants, 6 ounces to 

 one acre. Open ground planting IV2 feet 

 apart and II/2 to 2 feet between rows. Do not

 time to edible condition is given after each 

 variety. This varies with climatic and soil 

 conditions.
