A Field of Ferry's Hollander Cabbage at Oakview, Near Detroit 



CABBAGE 



Two complete trials are made of our cabbage stocks at our Oakview Experimental Gardens 

 each year. In the spring trial, the young plants are set out early in May. In the second or late trial, 

 the plants being set in the field early in July, 30 to 35 days are required from the time seed is sown 

 until the plants are ready for the field. The early varieties in the spring trial are ready for market 

 early in July. We have indicated the average number of days required to produce heads fully fit for 

 market from the date the young plants are set in the field. Very often the number of days required 

 in the later trial, providing there is ample moisture, is less than in the early trial.
