Crops Between September and April.
Lettuce is a popular and profitable
crop to grow under glass. 1t grows rap
idly, so that three crops can be taken
from a house between September end
April, and the demand for a choice prod
uct is always good. Here are few
of the most important points in the cul-
tivation Of this crop as presented 10y
Professor H. Bailey Of the Cornell ex,
pertinent station:
In the first place, lettuce must have
q low temperature. The night tempera-
ture should not rise above As degrees,
while it may go as low as 40 degrees or
even lower. The day temperature in the
shade should he DO to Go degrees.
While lettuce house must have an
abundance of light, the plants do not
suffer if they are some distance from the
glass and receive but little direct sun
light.
Professor Bailey's own experience has
fully demonstrated the superiority of
solid earth beds over benches for lettdce
Lettuce is greatly influenced by soil
For best results soil free of silt and
clay, but literally supplied with sand
is required This soil allows the water
to settle deeply into it and yet holds it
without percolation. The surface is dry,
preventing the occurrence Of rot. The
roots forage far and wide, and plant
food is quickly available.
