PEPPERS 
_ Time to Plant—For an early crop the seed may be sown either in the house or in a coldframe 
in early April. However, seed sown from May |5 to June | in the open ground will produce a crop 
in late Summer. 
Seed Sowing —Sow the seeds thinly in flats or in a coldframe in light pulverized soil. Cover 
them with not over 4 inch of soil. 
Soil Preparation—Any reasonably good, well cultivated garden soil, preferably ground that 
has been manurec the previous year. Soil too rich in nitrogen will tend toward the production of 
foliage rather than fruit. 
Transplanting—Seedlings started inside, should be transplanted as soon as they are large 
enough to handle, int boxes or individual pots and spaced far enough apart so that each will have 
ample space for development. These plants should be gradually hardened off by exposure to out- 
of-door conditions during favorable weather, before being permanently placed in the garden, about 
June |. Set the plants 114 feet apart in rows leaving about 3 feet between the rows. 
1 ounce of seed should produce about 2000 plants
