Vegetable Marrows

Vegetable Marrows

Twenty-First Week:  May.

Continue to earth up your Potatoes as the plants attain a height of four to five inches and bring the soil up to a fine point.

Vegetable Marrows, Ridge Cucumbers and Runner Beans that are raised under glass may now be planted in the open. Plant the the Ridge Cucumbers that been prepared by taking out a trench about eighteen inches deep and placing some rotted manure in the bottom. Stations may be prepared for Vegetable Marrows in a similar manor.


Brussels sprouts are now big enough for planting in their permanent positions. Plant them on firm ground and allow the seedlings two feet apart each way. It is a good idea to sow Radish in the intervening space.
