CAULIFLOWER ~— 
APPROVED BY THE SEVEREST CRITICS 
NOTICE SUPPLY OF CAULIFLOWER SEED 
As you no doubt know Cauliflower seed comes from Denmark and Holland. So far no shipments have 
been able to get out of these countries, due of course, to the war. However, there is still some hope, but 
until we are assured of additional supplies we are unable to quote in larger quantities than one ounce. 
CULTURE: For early June crops with altitudes about the same as Denver, sow seed 
in hotbeds during February. For higher altitudes, later planting is best. Plants should 
be gradually hardened off before setting out in the field, which should be done shortly 
after the first of April. For midseason crops plant seed in cold frames. For late crops 
plant seed in May and after plants are 4 to 6 inches high, transplant to field about 
June 15th. Cauliflower is grown much in the same manner as Cabbage. To make the 
best, largest and whitest heads the plants need cool, moist weather, well enriched 
soil and thorough cultivation. After the heads begin to form, the leaves should be 
drawn up around them and tied, thus to produce snowy white heads. Cauliflower is 
very sensitive and extreme care is necessary in growing the plants. Be careful that 
the hotbeds are not kept too warm and plants grow too tall and spindly, nor must the 
roots at any time be allowed to become dry either in the plant bed or in the field. A 
packet will produce about 150 plants, an ounce about 3,000 and four ounces are re- 
quired for an acre. (Cauliflower worms can be controlled by the use of CUBOR without 
danger of poisoning. See page 70.)

MOUNTAIN SNOWBALL. A medium early 
variety that produces a heavy yield of 
fine quality heads which are pure white, 
compact, deep and heavy. Foliage is 
heavy and dark green with good rib. 
Many growers are partial to this variety 
for main crop. Does not head all at one 
time.

White Mountain Selected 
WHITE MOUNTAIN SELECTED. Best main 
crop variety of cauliflower, and we con- 
sider it the most satisfactory variety of 
cauliflower grown. Heads are deep 
heavy pure white with good foliage. If 
sown at the same time as Mount Blanc, 
crop will be ready just following our 
Mount Blanc. For the past two years we

strain. Produces good white heavy heads. 
While this is an early variety, yet, it is 
used mostly for midseason and late crops. 
have had wonderful yields and fine qual- 
ity with this variety both on our farm 
in the vicinity of Denver and in the moun- 
MOUNT BLANC. This has proved to be tains of Colorado. Also very fine results 
the Wonder variety of Cauliflower. It 
yields more marketable heads per acre 
than any other variety. Especially adapt- 
ed to Colorado and the Rocky Mountain 
region. It grows on a short stem with 
heavy foliage set closely. The crop heads 
simultaneously. Three cuttings usually 
clear the field. This is especially recom- 
mended for extra early crop and strange 
as it may seem, for the very late crop. 
For an early crop set out the plants just 
as soon as possible and the crop will 
mature within a few days of the extra 
early Mountain Snowball or Super Snow- 
ball and for late crop sow the seed in 
May, transplant to fields in June and crop 
will be ready in September.

EXTRA EARLY MOUNTAIN SNOWBALL or 
ORIGINATOR’S SUPER SNOWBALL. Best 
suited for the extra early crop. It is a 
fast grower and very fast maturing. Be 
prepared to tie the leaves just as soon 
as the small heads begin to show and 
you can expect the entire crop to mature 
at practically the same time. Produces a 
strong plant with good sized, pure white 
heads, covered with plenty of dark green 
foliage.

MAXINE SNOWBALL or SELF PROTECT- 
ING SNOWBALL. It is second early and 
a heavy yielder of even-sized and very 
firm heads. The foliage is very dense 
and overlaps the tender flower, thus pro- 
tecting it from the hot sun and making 
it an almost sure crop.
