Vegetables Divided Into Classes for Endurance

This is the sixth of a series of articles on vegetable gardening BY AY. K. BEATTIE Rureau of Plant Industry. I . S. Department of Agriculture. V\ J HEN to plant early vegetables * 7 in gardens is a question that must be settled by each gardener for himself. Naturally, there are certain rules by which the gardener can be gui - ed. but experience one year afte. another is the best guide. We have about three general classes of vegetables as regards earliness of planting. These are: First, the ones that are resistant to cold; second, those that are only moderately resistant; and. third, those that are injured easily by frost or even by low temperatures. In the first group we have onions, peas, lettuce, spinach, kale, cabbage. broccoli, collard. turnips and mustard greens. Potatoes Moderately ‘Tough’ In the second group we have potatoes. beets, carrots radishes, cauliflower, celery, snap beans and sweet corn. The third group includes lima beans, summer squash, melons, cucumbers, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and okra. Potatoes are placed in the second group because, although they will not stand frost, they may be planted fairly early, because they require about two or three weeks to come up after planting. The first group can be planted considerably in advance of the date when the last killing frost in the spring may be expected. The second group may be planted about the time of the final killing frost. The third group should be planted only after all danger of frost is past, and after the soil has warmed up. The Way to Judge For example, in regions .vhere April 15 can be reckoned as the average date of the final killing frost in spring, the crops included in °roup one could be planted the first week in April, those of the second group, from April 15 to 20, and those of the third group, about the first wffk in May, or perhaps the last week m April, provided the sea-

’’Soil crust . . . should be carefully broken up with a steel rake to allow the seedlings to grow' through." son is well advanced and the weather favorable. Soil conditions are often as important as the temperature, and it would be folly to plant lima beans and other very highly sensitive seeds In a cold and excessively wet soil even though the air temperature may have taken a sudden rise. In that case it is better to wait until soil conditions and air temperature are both favorable. How deep to plant a crop depends largely on the condition of the soil. For example, beans should be covered lightly when planted in fairly wet and heavy soil, but on light sandy soils that are fairly dry they may be covered one and one-half to two inches, and the soil firmed over the seeds to retain the moisture. If a crust forms over seeds it will interfere seriously with their coming through, and where a crust does form, it should be carefully broken with a steel rake or some kind of a hand scratcher before the seedlings grow up to and come in contact with the crusted surface. Beets, carrots, turnips, salsify, parsley, and lettuce are especially difficult to get up when the soil forms a crust. Where these crops are seeded rather thickly, they have a better chance of pushing through, but thick seeding calls for drastic thinning of the plants afterward. Next—Toma tees, potatoes, and , cabbage.
