1942 FARM AND GARDEN SEEDS 9 

EGG PLANT. 
Sow the seed in hotbeds early in March, transplant to small pots and plunge them in the same beds; 
this is to make them strong and stocky. They should not be planted out until May or June, when the 
weather becomes warm and settled, as cool nights and wet weather will check their growth. Set the plants 
in rows 3 feet apart each way and give them thorough cultivation, drawing the earth up to the stems 
when they are about a foot high. Repeated sowings are sometimes necessary, as the seed does not germinate 
freely without strong and uniform heat. One oz. to 2,000 plants.
