To have celery early it 
should be sown in a hotbed 
quite early in the spring, and 
when three inches high plant 
out in a well-prepared bed, 
which must be covered in 
frosty weather. For the prin¬ 
cipal crop, sow early in the 
spring, very shallow in the 
seedbed, and when the plants 
are about six inches high 
transplant them about six 
inches apart into trenches, 
for blanching. Dig the 
trenches four feet apart, a 
foot wide and ten inches 
deep. Fill in five or six inches 
of well-rotted manure and 
mix thoroughly, half a spade 
deep, with the earth at the 
bottom. The tops of the 
plants should be shortened 
before they are set. Earth up 
to blanch, three or four times during their growth, taking care that no earth falls in 
the center of the plants.
