The number of days mentioned for different varieties indicates the period 
from planting to picking stage. Naturally they cannot be the same for 
every section of the country and varying conditions of soil or tempera¬ 
ture. They are, however, based on averages from the different Asgrow 
breeding and trial grounds and will serve as an approximate guide and 
enable comparison between varieties.
