Used as a substitute for Cabbage in portions of the South where it is almost impossible to succeed in raising cab- bage-heads. Sow from June to August for a succession, and culti- vate the same as Cab- bage; when large enough transplant in rows 1 foot apart each way, and hoe fre- quently. Pkt. o'cts., oz. 20 Gurken, Ger. Concombre, Fk. Pepino, Sp. For very early Cucumbers, sow the 1st of April in a hot-bed, upon pieces of sod (grass-side down), so that they can be readily transplanted to the open ground, in rich soil, when danger of frost is 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 when large enough for use, whether required or not; if left to ripen, it destroys their productiveness. For pickles, plant from June until the middle of July.
