CELERY 
Celery wants plenty of fertilizer—enrich the spot where you are 
going to grow it with manure, humus, or rich compost, or if you | 
lack these, with a commercial fertilizer high in nitrogen. For 
early crops sow indoors or in a hotbed about April 1, barely cover- 
ing the seed with soil. When the seedlings are 2 to 3 inches high, 
thin out or transplant 11% to 2 inches apart. Set out by the end of 
May. For winter Celery, sow seed in a coldframe or sheltered spot 
in the garden about mid-April and reset in the trenches about 
July 1. It is a good plan to cut off the tops of the plants when they 
are 4 to 5 inches high to make them more stocky. 
Days to maturity are figured from the time the plants are set in the 
garden 
An ounce of seed will produce about 7,500 plants
