Cultural Instructions—For home garden culture, plant 6 inches deep, 12 inches apart 
in rows 314 feet wide. Do not cover the crowns more than 2 inches at first, gradually filling 
in as they grow. If soil is not very fertile, we recommend a heavy application of manure 
or commercial fertilizer, repeating each year. In commercial plantings, the rows are some- 
times 4 feet wide, so as to provide ample space for tractor cultivation.
