CAULIFLOWER 
Culture. — Any soil that will grow 
cabbage will grow cauliflower. Extra 
manuring and preparation of the soil 
will be well repaid. The seeds may 
be sown in September and the plants 
wintered in the same manner as 
described for early Cabbage. Where 
this is not practicable, for early crop, 
sow in hot-bed in January or Febru¬ 
ary and transplant when freezing 
weather is past. Set the plants in 
rows and cultivate the same as cab¬ 
bage. An ounce of seed will produce 
about 2,000 plants. Cauliflower will 
not head well in hot, dry weather.
