The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-11-22
For The Florida Agriculturist:
MI. Motifs Ideas.

LAND TO PLANT-KINDS TO PLANT-WHEN
TO PLANT-DIsTANCE APART-FERTI-
LIZERs AND CULTURE.
With the introduction Of the Peen to
peach The culture Of that valuable
fruit is no longer question in this sec
ton; the failure is in the planter not
in the fruit; may be he is using land not
suited to the peach, more often though
it comes from neglect to supply the tree
with the needed fertilizer and proper
culture and the tree starves to death.
Root knot and Florida in general is
blamed for this stupid neglect. prefer
new land to plant in peaches.
AS in land that has never been planted
in vegeta bles or leguminous plants, it
will be nearly if not quite free from the
root knot parasite that is so injurious to
all soft rooted trees as figs, mulberries,
peaches and many other desirable trees
and plants.
Land that is suitable for the orange
tree | would expect to be good for the
peach, but a peach tree will not do on
hard pan land any better than the orange
dry land it must be.
The peach tree sends it's roots deep
into the soil, hence in all our operations
of preparing the land, as also culture
afterward, we must bear that fact in
mind.
TIME TO PLANT.
All things considered prefer to plant
as early in the fall as the wood of the
tree we are to plant is well ripened, say
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-11-22

it gives out quicker than in more North
ern sections; here you still occasionally
find someone advocating the peach on
the Mariana. Trees on this stock are
absolutely worthless; three-quarters die
in the nursery the first year, and after
being set in orchard, the remainder soon
succumb. | have seen thousands die,
but not one come into bearing, and [
don't believe there is a healthy three
year old tree in the State. Stear clear Of
the peach on the Mariana.
What are the other requisites to sue
cessful peach culture in South Florida?"
"Having selected varieties adapted to
your location and purpose, worked on
peach roots, and planted them on a soil
suited to fruit the remaining requisites
of success are high cultivation and fer
tilization, particularly fertilization. All
the successful peach growers on the
sandy lands of Florida are liberal fertili-
and stir the soil from early spring until
midsummer, and then let the trees rest"
"Now last word on the most-impor-
tant-ofall bject-fertilizing. Apply a
pOtash-phosphoric -acid fertilizer in the
late fall or early winter November or
December)-that's for fruit; and an
ammonia fertilizer in early spring (Feb-
ruary), and perhaps again later in spring,
that's for growth. A soil rich in vege-
table mould, humus we call it, or where
the surface is mulched, is an ammonia
producing laboratory, and needs less OF
this ingredient. But there must be am
monia or there will not be growth. You
will soon learn co proportion and ap-
ply the fertilizer according to the needs
of the trees. There is an Important
in the use Of fertilizers that is not laid
down in the books, namely: The soil
must be in proper condition as to ammo
MIA supply, before the potash or phos-
phOric acid will benefit the trees. Cart
loads of these substances will do no good
without ammonia First ammonia for
growth, then potash and phosphoric acid
for fruit-that's all there is of it,"
And We reporter went his way deter
mined forthwith to plant peach or
chard.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-11-22

icness, a superior fruit, it's greatest adj
vantage being, that, while it ripens as
early as the earliest, it blooms month
later than the others and thus escapes
danger from late frosts. 1t is Peen-to
Seeding, of the ordinary peach shape,
but shows plainly a dash of Honey blood,
which adds materially to it's quality. In
South Florida, the foregoing very early
varieties are marketed May 18th to June
10th"
"What are the varieties that fill in the
interim between the foregoing and the
Georgia peaches?''
"In addition to the above very early vari-
cites. the Peen-to has given us the follow
ing varieties which ripen in South Florida
