CAULIFLOWER 
CUDTURE. Cauliflower are partial to a rich fibrous loam 
well charged with humus. An occasional light dressing of 
nitrate of soda and potash is beneficial. Make the soil as fine 
as possible for every transplanting, and do not allow the 
young plants to become checked at any time for want of water. 
For spring and early summer use, sow in January or February 
in hotbed, and transplant to cold frames 2 or 3 inches apart, 
when sufficiently large; and to the garden 24 to 30 inches 
each way, as soon as the ground is warm enough. For late 
autumn crops sow in the early part of June, and transplant 
in July. When the heads are formed, tie the leaves up over 
them to blanch. One ounce of seed produces about 3000 plants. 
(Days noted mean from medium sized plants to heading time).

renders it one of the best for forcing under glass. Valuable 
for late planting also.
