CAULIFLOWER 
1 ounce for 2500 plants: 5 ounces for acre 
CULTURE: For early June crops with altitudes about 
the same as Denver, sow seed in hotbeds during 
February. For higher altitudes, later planting is best. 
Plants should be gradually hardened off before setting 
out in the field, which should be done shortly after 
the first of April. For midseason crops plant seed in 
cold frames. For late crops plant seed in ‘May and 
after plants are 4 to 6 inches high, transplant to field 
about June 15th. Cauliflower is grown much in the 
same manner as cabbage. To make the best, largest 
and whitest heads the plants need moderate weather, 
well enriched soil and thorough cultivation until the 
plants become quite large. After the heads begin to 
form, the leaves should be drawn up around them 
and tied, thus to produce snowy white heads. Cauli- 
flower is very sensitive and extreme care is necessary 
in growing the plants. Be careful that the hotbeds 
are not kept too warm and plants grow too tall and 
spindly, nor must the roots at any time be allowed 
to become dry either in the plant bed or in the field. 
Cauliflower worms can be controlled by the use of 
CUBOR without danger of poisoning. For aphids (plant 
lice) use Black Leaf 40, Vapatone, or Chlordane (Colo- 
tado 44). See pages 90-91. 
MOUNT BLANC. A marvelous early main crop 
variety. Even with adverse weather, will yield 
an abundance of marketable large snow white 
heads. Plants short, stalky with heavy broad 
closely set foliage. Crop heads simultaneously, 
3 cuttings usually clear the fields. This variety 
has given wonderful results in the San Luis 
Valley, Canon City, Denver, Pueblo, Phoenix. 
Especially adapted to the Rocky Mountain region. 
MOUNT BLANC 
SNOWDRIFT NO. 16 GOLD SEAL STRAIN 
EARLY SUPER SNOWDRIFT. An outstanding new 
cauliflower. It is early. Plants grow and head 
like Super Snowball, but the heads are larger, 
heavier, deeper and more solid, like Snowdrift. 
All growers who have tried this new variety are 
reordering seed. 
SUPER SNOWBALL STRAIN A. Also known as 
Early Mountain Snowball suited for early main 
crop. A fast grower, heads large, firm, and 
white. Four days later than Mount Blanc. 
SNOWDRIFT NO. 16 GOLD SEAL STRAIN. There 
are several strains of Snowdrift and after years 
of closest observations, trials, and growing hun- 
dreds of acres of cauliflower ourselves we have 
found this strain superior. Although it is a 
medium early variety we recommend Snowdrift 
No. 16 for the main mid-season and late crops. 
Plants are vigorous, rather short stem, leaves 
long and erect, forming a good protection for 
the deep, heavy, well rounded white heads. 
We can furnish either European or American 
grown seed but recommend the European. 
SNOWBALL X STRAIN. Also known as White 
Mountain and is much like Snowdrift No. 16 
except plants grow taller and about 5 days 
later. Heads are deep, solid, white, protected 
with good heavy foliage.
