Concomhre, Fr. Fepino, Sp. For very early Cucumbers, sow the 1st of Ajjril in a hot-bed, upon pieces of sod fgrass-side down), so that they can be readily transplanted to the open ground, in rich soil, when danger of frost i& over, or protect by hand-glasses. For early use, plant if the weather has become settled and warm in hills about 4 feet apart each way; thin out to four of the strongest plants to each hill, after all danger from insects is over; they succeed best in a warm, moist, rich, loamy soil; continue planting at intervals for a succession. The Cucumbers should be gathered w^hen large enough for use, whether required or not; if left to ripen, it destroys their productiveness. Far pickles, plant from June until the middle of July.
