* Planting dates shown for crops marked ‘‘*”’ are intended to be for setting plants into the garden. Seeds should 
be sown 40 to 60 days earlier, indoors or under glass. 
Seed should be covered from three to five times its diameter. Press soil down firmly. Keep moist continuously. 
The above chart gives between rows for hand cultivation; where horse or tractor is used the rows should be 
farther apart.
