REFERENCE NOTES FROM THE TABLES
1 In the vicinity of New York City. Each 100 miles north or south will
make a difference of 5 to 7 days later or earlier.
2 This is for sowing the seed. It will take three to six weeks before
plants are
ready. Hence the advantage of using the seed-bed. For
instance, you can start your late cabbage about June 15th, to follow
the first crop of peas, which should be cleared off by the 10th of
July.
3 Distances given are those at which the growing _plants_ should
stand, after thinning. Seed in drills should be sown several times as
thick.
4 Best started in seed-bed, and afterward transplanted; but may be sown
when wanted and afterward thinned to the best plants.
