A 12 MONTHS MIXED CROPPING PROGRAM 
FOR COLD DISTRICTS 
Early Spring 
Cover daffodils from the time of their first appearance above 
ground until they reach the top of the P.M.Gs. Do not cover 
throughout the Winter. To get them early they must be cold 
first and warm later. Se 
Late Spring 
As soon as the P.M.Gs. come off the daffodils, move them 
over maiden strawberry plants and keep them in place until 
the crop ‘is picked. “You will get large, luscious, perfectly 
clean fruit a month or so before the outdoor crop. 
Summer 
As soon as the strawberries have finished fruiting, move the 
P.M.Gs. to cover musk melons. 
Fall 
Sow lettuce in August and cover with P.M.Gs. just before 
the date on which you expect the first frosts. You will be 
able to enjoy fresh salads in November.
