CRISPY CRUNCHY -
Chinese cabbage makes
sensational salads. ~

Next to ‘lettuce, Chinese _

cabbage is the best: green
‘salad

ingredient. Its leaves
can be used whole to linc: |
salad bowls or heads can be

‘cross cut into ringlets for
tossed salads.

If you or your family are
fond of salads, you really

should grow Chinese cab-

bage as a change of pace.’

Chinese cabbage, ‘if you
are not familiar with it,
tastes not at all like regular
cabbage.

Its pleasant piquant taste
and texture are actually

.- better-suited_to-salads-than —-

to cooking, even though
lightly steamed and buttered
Chinese ‘cabbage is a
delicacy.

. Some gardeners have been
8

even though it is one of the
easiest vegetables to
produce. The secret is in the
date of planting.

Chinese cabbage needs
several week of cool weather
to form those big, tightly
wrapped heads.

The best planting time for -
Chinese cabbage is after July
1; plants will mature when
days are becoming
progressively shorter and
cooler. Plants will head
rather than shooting up
flowers. .

Spring planted crops of
Chinese cabbage 9 are
“chaticey” anywhere, even if
you get seeds in the ground
extremely carly.

One way to assure a good
spring crop of Chinese
cabbage is to plant secds
under a tunnel made of clear
plastic sheeting or an arch of
corrugated clear fiberglass.
