The above distances are to be understood of such plants as are to remain to grow to their full size ; but such of the forward kinds as are to be cut while young may be planted closer : eighteen inches to two feet will be sufficient. Plant out also the general crop of red cabbage, if not done I'D autumn, &.i:.: allow them two feet and a half, or a yard distance.
Seite 122 - ... upright side of the stock, at the back of the slope, inserting it with great exactness, as far as it is cut, with the thickest edge outwards, and so that the rind may meet exactly every way with the rind of the stock.

Seite 99 - ... and to leave three, four, or five of the strongest of last year's shoots standing on each root, to bear next summer: all above that number, on every root, must be cut off close to the surface of the ground, and all straggling shoots between the main plants must also be taken away. Each of the shoots which are left should be shortened, observing to cut off about one third or fourth of their original length.
Seite 11 - Allowance for it to be about four or five inches wider than the frame each way : this done, begin to make the bed accordingly, observing to shake and mix the dung well, as you lay it on the bed, and beat it down with the back of the fork, as you go on : but I would not advise treading it, for a bed which is trodden hard will not work so kindly, and be more liable to burn than that which is suffered to settle gradually of itself...
