MANY FINE 
VARIETIES 
LABBAGE 
EARLY 
AND LATE 
How to Grow For very early use sow in January or February in hotbeds; put out when 
the plants are strong enough, into other hotbeds, or sow in cold frames in 
March; transplant when danger from killing frost is past, to open ground in rows 24 to 36 inches 
apart and 18 inches in the row. For a succession sow in the open ground the last of March or 
early in April. The autumn and winter varieties sow in April or early in May, in shallow drills 
3 or 4 inches apart; transplant early in July in rows. Cabbage succeeds best in fresh, rich soil, 
deeply dug or plowed. One ounce of seed produces about 2,000 plants; one-half pound will 
produce enough plants to set an acre. We have indicated the average number of days required 
to produce heads from the date the young plants are set in the field. For best results work a level 
tablespoonful of Vigoro, the complete plant food, in the soil around the plant when transplanting 
to the field.
