Sow the seed in a well prepared soil as soon as 

 the ground is in a proper condition to work. Sow 

 in drills and tread the seed firmly in; thin out to 

 an inch apart, and keep the ground well worked 

 and free from weeds. Make the soil very rich 

 with well rotted manure, which should be dug in 

 deep; a moist, low, rich bottom land or well- 

 drained muck soil is preferable. Set the plants 

 eight or twelve inches apart. To blanch, draw 

 earth around the plants from time to time, taking 

 care riot to cover the tops of the center shoots.
