days. An ounce of seed will sow about 100

sow an acre.

SCOTT'S PLANTING TIPS 
Good garden care consists of four steps: 
1. Mulch, to reduce weeds and conserve water. 
Spread grass clippings, straw, etc., between rows 
and around staked plants. 
2. Feed, before watering. Apply a balanced plant 
food in narrow bands along the rows, roughly 4” 
away from the stems. Work it into the soil, so 
it is absorbed quickly. 
3. Protect, with dusts and sprays at first attack 
of disease or insects. Remove diseased plants
