FALL PLANTING 
Remember, we do not start shipping plants in the fall un- 
til about October 15th. You have around six weeks after that 
to set them here in New England, and some years plants can 
be set up into December. Any time the ground can be worked 
before freezing, plants can be set. 
Cover plants set in the fall with a little pine sawdust after 
the ground freezes, to keep them from heaving. Hight or 10 
inches in diameter and one half an inch deep is enough for 
strawberries. Brush it off the crowns in the spring, leaving the 
rest on the ground to work into the soil 
Pine sawdust around most any small fruit plants in the fall 
is a good thing to prevent heaving. You will find fall set plants 
make more runners then when set in April and will bear a 
larger crop. It will save much valuable time in the spring that 
can be used for other work. 
From our own experience, we can highly recommend fall 
planting.
