CELERY. 
CULTURE.—Celery seed is slow to germinate and ample time should be given. Sow 
thinly, cover lightly and keep constantly moist. When the plants are from 4 to 6 inches 
high cut off the tops and transplant them 6 inches apart into trenches 4 inches deep 
and 9 inches wide and trenches 3 feet apart. As the plants grow fill the earth toward the 
plant to secure proper bleaching. Never allow dirt to rest on the heart of the plant. 
Sow in December, January and February in hotbeds for early transplanting, and in 
August and September for a later crop. Sow thinly and shade during the hot months. 
An ounce will produce about 3,000 plants, and one-half pound will plant an acre. Ready 
for market in 110 to 150 days.
