PLANT VEGETABLES FOR A CONTINUOUS 
SUPPLY 
It is often desirable and practical to extend the harvest period of 
certain quick maturing vegetables by making a succession of 
sowings. Thus, after the first sowing, a second one is made a 
week or two later and possibly a third or fourth so that as the 
first crop is harvested and gone the second will be ready to 
harvest. Most of this planning is guess work without some 
knowledge of the duration or time a crop is in condition for 
picking. 
The following table is intended only as a guide in planning suc- 
cession plantings, since exposure and weather conditions and the 
family needs of a crop make it at best an approximation. 
Variety Harvest Lasts Variety Harvest Lasts 
Beans 4 weeks Onions (sets) 4 weeks 
Beets 6 weeks Peas 2 weeks 
Carrots 8 weeks Radish 3 weeks 
Cucumbers 4 weeks Spinach 2 weeks 
Endive 6 weeks Sweet Corn 10 days 
Kohlrabi 3 weeks Turnips 2 weeks 
Lettuce 6 weeks 
Care should be taken to observe the planting seasons in the chart 
at the left so that sowings are not made ‘‘out of season.”
