apart, covering it lightly, and for succession every two or three weeks until 
mid-summer. The plants must be blanched before using, which is accom¬ 
plished by gathering the large outer leaves to a point at the top, and tying 
them together.

deep, and one foot apart. When six or eight inches high, they may be trans¬ 
planted in rows ten inches apart each way, as deep as possible, that the neck 
being covered, may be blanched.
