This book contains a detailed and practical guide to growing cucumbers and tomatoes. Designed to be as practical and useful as possible, this volume relies upon practice that has been tried and tested in the business - time after time. This vintage text constitutes a reliable work of reference to the experienced grower, and a reliable guide to cultivation for those with less experience. The chapters of this book include: 'Choice of Site', 'Type of House', 'Varieties', 'The Soil', 'Propagation', 'Potting', 'Planting', 'Pots and Boxes', 'Care After Planting', 'Mulching', 'Trimming', 'Weight of Crop', 'Gathering and Marketing', 'Grading', 'Packing', 'Diseases of Tomatoes', 'Pests', etcetera.
