Free Press Photo COME GARDENING - with Doc Hartn o!! PLAN NOW TO FILL YOUR'VEGETABLE GARDEN How much space is requircd to have a good productive vegetable garden? Not a great deal. If you have a space of 12 x 15 feet you can grow about 12 of your favorite vegetables in it. Draw a plan. You may have a fence on your property. I'd suggest you start your vege table garden froni there and Work out 15 feetor so. The back fence then would be for vegetables quech as beans and cucumbers. Row one, working from front tobjack, would be our three- fold row. At the front, I like to have a clump or so of chives and along the row, parsley. Towards the back you could consider a few pepper plants. DR, JOHN B. DAVIES IS PLEASED TO'ANNOUNC E THAT DR. JAMES IH.

I don't grow one vari-ety, -but l-il include as many as are on the market. 1 like loose-leaf lettuce, it's easy and fast to grow. Romaine lettuce would fMI out the rest of the row. N Row three is my carrot row. This area should be dug deeper because the carrot roots like to get into the soil. They' should have a good loose, crumbly soil to develop ini so you'll have tastier carrots. Don't forget to thin them out. They won't produce well if crowded. Allow a distance of two inches between each, and you'il have a bountiful crop. Row four I would give entirely to beets, both the tops and root growth are tasty and easy to grow. There are a number of good ,varieties of seed to select from and the old standby of Detroit Dark Red is stili the one most used. Row five is the onion row. Green onions are tasty and easy to grow but I like a variety that may be a littie difficult to corne by, He-Shi-Ko, an evergreen bunching onion. Include a few Sweet Spanish White, a very' large white strain, attractive in appearance, having a mild flavor. Row six is the radish row and you have a number of varieties from which to select. One of the best is Champion. In this same row you could also grow some spinach or endive. Ini row seven, on the outside of the plot, we can perhaps get a little more sun s0 I plant my tomnatoes and squash. There are a number of tomato seeds that can be started ini. doors or even obtained as young plants from your nursery. man or garden centre. If you have a favorite vegetable or you have an abundance of one, you can pickle or freeze many of themn. Fertilizing; It's flot true that the more fertilizer you apply to a garden, the -larger the crop you're going to get. Strictly adhere to the manufacturer's direction of two to three pounds per 100 square feet of vegetable space. l'il apply this as the plants germinate, then as they grow into good tail strong plants and once again before harvest. Work out a three application fertilization program using Pink Vigoro that has ail the balanced nutrients your vegetable garden is going to need. There is one exception, I like to use the Vigoro Tomato Food 5-10-10 for best growth and fruit production. Lawn Fertilization and Weed Control. You've cleaned up your lawn and fertilized but now you notice that there are a few weeds. This can spoil the appearance of a good green lush îawn . If weeds are ac tively grown, I like to apply by hand sorne Vigoro Weed and Feed on the broadleaved weeds, or Vigoro Dandelion Killer if you're plagued with the blow-over seeds from a lazy neighbour's garden. By the way, the secret in mowing is to mow often but not too closely. The grass blades should bc long enough to prevent the roots from b"ig starved and short enough to bc attractive. If you do this, excess leaf-growth is prevent- cd, fertilizer loss will bc imited and problemns such as weeds, insects and coarse grass are reduccd.
