Gardens Thrive With Proper Cultivation According To Horticulturist
Iowa State College extension horticulturist C. V. Hollainger says gardens fail from poor cultivation. Frequent surface cultivation keeps soil loose, reduces weeds, and conserves moisture. In small plots, interplant radishes with parsnips, plant celery in June with rows 12 to 15 inches apart, and transplant seedlings after fair growth, either from seed boxes or a gardener.
