loamy, fairly moist soil and should not 
be planted until ground is warm. Plant 
in hills, dropping 6 to 8 seeds in each 
hill and covering with 4% inch of soil; 
thin to 3 or 4 strongest plants in each 
hill. Continue planting at intervals 
for succession. Cucumbers for pickles 
may be planted during June and early 
July. For an extra-early crop start 
seed in small pots in hotbeds.
