Cloche

Chapter XVI: Second Series of Crops in the Frame and Cloche Hot-Beds

Excerpt: As soon as the hot-beds have been cleared of early crops--of which the last is cauliflower­--they must be cleaned of all rubbish, then forked over, raked level, and at once planted with crops which will mature before the severe frosts come. The method for preparing the plants for these various crops is given below.

Chapter VII: Cloches, Cloche-Carriers, and Pegs


Excerpt: CLOCHES, or bell-glasses, are used in great number. They protect the plants as well as the frames do. They admit more light, cost less in proportion, require no painting, and, save for the few that get broken, last for all time.
