flooding for any length of time. For early Celery, sow in February or March in beds, either 
drilled or broadcast. The seed must be planted very shallow and kept wet. After seedlings 
are well started and strong, transplant to furrows 3 feet apart and 6 inches deep. Set the 
plant’s earth toward the plant to secure proper bleaching. Plant 6 or 7 inches apart. Never 
allow dirt to rest on heart of plant. Never work on Celery when it is wet with rain or dew.

worms. Do not allow water to stand during heat of day after irrigating, it will cause Celery
