raising early and tender plants dig a pit 4 foot deep and of length and breadth as you have occasion in a convenient and warme place lying well to the Sun and sheltered from winds which you may help by art if not so naturally fill it with dung and leitter from the Stables about a sourthnights gathering some makes it of Barley-straw or the same mixt with bran because it keeps heat long and its heat not so excessive nor so noisome to plants as dung and when well Tread and even on the Top lay about 4 Inches thick of rich light but fresh and clean sifted mould thereon arch it over with sticks and cover with matts 4 or 5 dayes to cause it heat then uncover and give it Air a day or two that its violent heat may pass then sow your seeds and cover the bed again And the next day if you find the bed over hot give it more Air if too cold cast some Straw on the covering untill the heat returne so by airing and covering you may keep it in a constant temper when the Seeds come up give them Air to dry the moisture raised by the heat of the bed How to cover the choice with Glasses see Chap. 6. Sect 1. But as there is great trouble in rightly ordering this sort of hot-bed so here remedied by a better which is only to fill and tread the pit full of new dung and leitter not covering it with Earth and place wooden cases therein about 9 or 10 Inches deep and about 3 foot broad having wood-handles at the ends boar them full of Auger or Wimble holes at the bottome fill them with the foresaid earth and therein sow your seeds and these cases and the earth in them will be kept warme during the whole season wherein a hot-bed is necessary for if it lose heat add fresh dung and leitter under about and betwixt the cases there is Dew on the Glasses while the heat remains but if exhausted they will be dry consequently the trouble of transplanting from one hot bed to another is hereby saved Provide a shelter over the whole if you please and frames of Glass over some of the inside cases where there is most need others you may leave open as your Seeds requires By this your pit and cases are every year ready to your hand requiring only a supply of fresh dung But this pit will be so much the more excellent if lyn'd round at the sides with brick and where you cannot conveniently sink it for Water you may build the same above ground And when this pit is empty it will be also ready for wintering of Flower Pots with July-flowers c. 8. In watering plants use not well-water especially for tender plants neither Rivers that run long and quick on sharp gravel these yields no nourishment to plants but rather chills them therefore if you must use such let them stand sometime in the Sun and open Air uncovered in tubs mixt with dung and powr it off the dreg when you use it let the quantity and quality of the dung be according to the nature of your plants as if great growers and require much heat put horse or pigeons dung into the water but for the more durable put Sheeps dung remembering if your ground be bad to add the more dung When dung lyes above ground about any plants as I use to do with Trees Artichocks c. The water descending through the same is very relishing to the Roots if you powr the water at a little distance round the Tree for when lashed on the stem it washeth the Earth from the Roots Water no plants with standing stinking Ditch-water nor no Water that stinketh Rain-water and large Ponde-water is excellent but keep it not too long yet if in a large Vessel the oftener you Stir it the longer it will keep sweet so the larger your pondes or Rivers be and the opener to the Sun and Air and the more moving by horse geese and ducks their Sweeming the sweeter it will be and if the washings of stables streets dung Hill-water c. Run into them that adds much to their fertility providing they have some moving as is said to make them sweet If you fear dry weather differre not too long but water while your ground is yet moist differre not if you mind to water at all these that Root deepest water most and also when you do begin Continue it so long as you find occasion In watering Trees and greater Plants stir and waken the Earth a little about their Roots with a fork so as it may drink the more evenlier minding to tread firme again And for the same cause you may sink the Earth a little in forme of a shallow dish rownd your Coleflowers Artichocks c. Dip your Flower Pots in a Tub of water to drink through the holes at the bottome When you water beds of small seeds with the watering pot shake it nimbly that it may fall like a showre of smal Rain I have often made use of a handful of small Straw or Hay drawen as thatch tyed in the midle and at one end powred water with a Cup and shaked the same that it appeared like a Gentle bedewing rather than a glutting Rain Some that are desirous to have the ground allwayes moist about any plant do place near it a vessel with water and in it a piece woollen clothe with one end thereof hanging out to the ground and the other in the water the Cloath being first wet it will drop continually if the end without be lower than that within the vessell and when the water within fails it may be augmented If it drop not fast enough the clothe may be increased if too fast diminished Early in the Spring while the weather is yet cold I intreat you be cautious in watering the leaves of the young and tender plants only wet the ground about them when your plants or seeds are more hardy and the nights yet cold water in the forenoons but when the nights are warme or dayes very hot then the evening is the best time Plant in wet and sow in dry I do not mean over we●t or over dry Withall let them have good Air which conduceth much to their health and life without which nothing can live CHAP. III. How to propagate and order Forrest-trees 1. OMmiting here the distinction of species having confin'd to one chapter I shall speak briefly yet I hope plainly of their Governement thus Albeit the most of Forrest-trees may be Increased by Suckers Layers c. Yet if you desire Trees worth your while Raise them from the seed Therefore prepare a seminary or seed-plot together with a nurserie well ordered and handsomely made up in beds as in part 1. Chap. 5. sect 2. and there sow and set your seeds and plants in their respective seasons keep them clean from weeds and water them when need is also Earth up and dible in these cast up by the
preserve them from colds while young If you water Imbibe pigeons dung but touch not their leaves therewith when their leaves ar 3 Inches broad Transplant them into a very fat and well mixt soil 2 foot distance prun their Roots and tops and if any worm knots cut them a way and in setting keep their hearts Immedially above ground And all along keep them clean of weeds under hanging and withered leaves let them not suffer drought while young make the water like wort by dung if the ground and seed be good you may expect good heads which if you spend not alltogether before frosts which spoils them take them up in a dry day and ty them in pairs to hang in a dry Room for use the best seed comes from Candia There be many Cabbages sow the Savoy and such tender sorts as cole-flowers albeit not so tender sow the great white and Red the full moon in July Plant them furth in Octob 3 foot distance in well dunged ground set some also in March but then the gardner finds multiplicity of business therefore it s his wisdom to put as much work by hand as can suffer it at least to have all his grounds fallowed before winter you may rake up and hang your Cabbages in Novem as cole-flowers but plant some of the best and hardest for seed up to the neck when they shoot support with stakes and Ropes when full cut and lay on a clothe to perfect But choice the midle rejecting the lower branches Catch snails and worms that graws the young sprouting plants and set nets for birds at the same time the reason why old Cole is full of green worms is dry poor ground never weeded or otherwayes unqualified dungs and unseasonably applyed If they would trench mix c. As in Chap 2. that their ground may be clean and sweet they shall ripen accordingly Common Colworts ar usually sowen at spring planted in summer and eaten through winter and at spring when other green herbes ar scarce you may also sow and set them with Cabbages and ripe their seeds accordingly 3. Of sweet herbes as Clary by seeds and offsets in Aprile at which time you may slip and set Tansie Sage Cost Mint Balme Winter Savory Thyme Penniroyall Wild Marjorum Maudlin Fennell c. Prune their tops and fibres and plant in a garden soil 8 rowes in the bed they all continue long but cutting their tops in growing time makes them more durable and cut them all within a handful of the ground at August that they may recover against winter You may likewayes sow the seed of Fennell Thyme Winter as well as Summer Savory Dill Sweet Basill c. In Aprile a warme cultured soil ordering them as above the three last ar annualls If you would have sweet Marjorum early raise it on the hot bed the sweet Basill requires the same sow it also the latter end of Aprile in a warme fat soil 8 rowes in the bed you may sow it in July and Transplant when two Inches high in a warme bordure at a south wall its seed with Basill comes from hotter Countries Sow Rosmary seed in Aprile or at the same time take its slips or cuttings and twist them a little at the ends and dible in good soil on a south wall-bordure but cut not their tops they easily root being watered in drought with soap water you may ply it to the wall as Shrubs 4. I am now come to Roots they require a light Earth deep trenched fat sand mixt with Sheeps dang its convenient that it be dunged a year before because new dung maks them forke Plant Liquorish offsets and Runners in February in this soil well stirred and mixt after which do not tread save in the furrows six rowes in the bed and cover all the Intervalls with leitter topt with sand but let the plants be free for this is to keep out drought the first summer keep them allwayes clean of weeds and cut their stalks near winter let it stand 3 summers in the ground and in Novem take it up thus begin at one side of the plot and make a trench the whole deepth of their Roots taking it out carefully not breaking it at the face of the same casting the Earth still behind as you proceed then cut off the plants to divide carefully and lay them amongst moist sand in a cellar till setting time And because it stands three seasons you may have three several plantations so shall you have it to take up yearly if you plant accordingly Scorzonera by seeds and by offsets that is by parting the tops of the Root sow in the Spring or when its seed ripes promiscuouly in the beds it continues many years in the ground and growes still the greater and is in season at all times for eating tho it yearly run to seed Order Carvy aa scorzonera its Roots is eaten as parsneeps Skirrets by seeds but chiefly by offsets plant the small sets not many in a bundle in March 8 rowes in the bed when their stalks begin to wither fall a spending them and as you break off their Roots for use lay rheir tops or sets in ground covered a little till the Spring for planting I cautioned you before to change the crops these you spend not e're the frosts come hard house among very dry sand that you may have them when you will rather as be barred from them by the frosts Parsneeps by seed only sow in March promiscuously over the bed but thin spend and house them with skirrets and cut quit off their tops lest they grow amongst the sand reserve some of the best untaken up for seed which will ripe the next season choice the midle stem seed Beat-Rave may be ordered in all cases as parsneeps save that you may begin sooner to eat them viz as soon as they are bigg enough tho they last as long besides these you pickle Carrots as beat Raves Turneeps by seeds in Aprile May June July the first proves not best promiscuously over the bed very thin and scarcely any covering of Earth When they rise thin them late turneeps may be housed as parsneeps and seeds reapt accordingly Horse Radish by offsets and lasts long too The Garden Radish by seed only you may raise for early in the hotbed cases hence every 20 dayes with other sallading through summer because they quickly shoot for seed sow black Radish in August and Septemb for winter these seeds next season Potatoes being cut in as many pieces as you please providing there be an eye at each piece and planted in March 5 rowes in the bed plant not deep neither in wer or stiff ground spend them with parsneeps and in housing spread only through a board-floor Parsly is also a Root for the Kitchen and so is fennell I spoke of them before only you may house some for winter See part 1. Chap 5. for the orderly planting of Kitchen herbes 5. Weeding I think may be accompted the most material
nor seek supporting There is Strawberrie-tree and Tree night-shade who are tender But Indian and Spanish Jasmines Mirtles Oleanders and Oreng-tree yet tenderer wherefore I am not very curious of them yet there is severals in this Countrey has them and are at great pains in governing them by setting them in cases small stones at the bottome filled with Earth mentioned for fine plants Chap 2. Sect. 6. at the season Chap. 1. Sect. 4. Housing in Winter between latter-end September till beginning May giving them fresh Earth as they retire and expose them i. e. takes out the upper exhausted stirring that below with a Fork not wounding the Roots and puts in its place some rich and well consum'd soil watering on all occasions with Water wherein Neats dung is steeped not touching leaves or stem therewith whereof they are sparing while remaining in the House except after long frosts in whose extremity is used a little Charcoal free of smoak sunk a little in the Floor and in warme dayes free of frosts and fogs aquainted with the Air but shut close at night again and when they may expose to the free Air yet even then sets them a week in the shade having first brussed them from dust c. For my part I rather be in the Woods Parks Orchards Kitchen Garden or fields measuring planting and improving the ground to best advantage However I will here take a little turne among the Flowers 3. Of Fibrous Rooted Flowers July-flowers are the best and are increased by offsets layers slips and seeds A light loamy Earth well mixt with rotted soil of Cowes and Sheep a year before hand Albeit I have raised many double by seed of my own reaping yet the surest way to preserve the best is by laying because seedlings are apt to dy after they have born a Flower how to lay see Chap. 1. Sect. 6. Plant out your layers at spring and give these in Potts fresh Earth as the Orenge-tree and yearly cleanse the old Roots of withered dead and Rotten leaves and leave not above 3 or 4 Spindles for Flower if choice and nip off superfluous buds lest they blow and bear themselves to death and if any brust slit as I directed with double Yelow Rose At midsummer shade from afternoons Sun a little these that blow support them against winds set hoofs amongst them for catching erwigs their enemies Water well in drought sparing their leaves preserve the Choice from too much Raines by laying the Pots on their sides strick off the Snow when it lyes too weightie on them these you will not to beat seed cut their stalks as soon as past the Flower Stock July-flowers by seeds or cuttings the seed of single will produce double but the more leaves the Mother hath the doubler shall the product be sow and plant with carnations or July-flowers they affect a soil with them Prim-roses Couslips and bears-ears by offsets in the spring o when the Flower is past viz. July they affect a good natural Earth well mixt with rotten Neats dung the finer sorts loves a little shade in summer if in Pots or cases you may transport them to such at pleasure Great varieties may be raised from seed sowen in Pots the soil aforesaid mixt with willow Earth in October take head of deep interring bairs ears sow them as purslain set the Potts and cases with them at the Southside of a Wall till Aprile at which time they spring and must be now retired a little as is said transplant in July to Flower next spring and neglect not to Earth up such as are apt to work out of ground namely bears ears There is many other as Noble Liverwort Spring Gentianella Virgines-bours c. and ar Increassed by offsets in the spring or by seeds at the same time As also Columbins Holihocks Cransbill Campions and Constantinople Flowers Catch Flyes Pinks and sweet Williams Throat Worts and Bell Flowers c. Or Dasies Violets Spidder Wort double Mash Mary-gold by offsets any time when springing Of Bulbo and Tuberous Roots there is Tulipas of great varieties Increases them by offsets when their stalkes withers which is generally about June July August this is also the season for other bulbo and tuberos Roots keep them in a cool but dry place till Sept or Octob and then plant them in a light sandy earth with fat soil an Inch below the bulb so that the roots may reach it remove every three years and oftener if they affect not the soil they may be raised from seed but its tedious Anemonies the same very way as Tulips except that they require a rich earth mixt with Rotten dung so that it be not Rank Apply this also to Rannuculases of the finest sorts Cyclamin Roots may be carefully parted in July and set in the soil for Tulips Crocuses and Cholcicums as Tulips but requires a mixt rich light soil And so with Irise Bulboses but loves a dry bed and Narcissuses Ornithogulams Jacenths Hesons Aconits Hellibors c. Likewayes Iris Tuberosus Crown Imperial and Lilias of severall sorts Pionies Cynosorches c. Indian Tuberose is tender See Esq Evelin's Kallendar There ar many Annualls may be sowen in pots and plunged in hot bed and some under glass covers especially them sowen in Autumne as Amaranthus Marvel of Peru flos Africanus Convolvulus c. In Aprile you may sow them on the cold bed if good fat warme earth together with double Marygold Cyanus Nigella Delphinus Anterhinum double garden and Corne Popies Fox Gloves Flos Solis Flos Adonis c. But if you would be further satisfied in the varieties of plants consult the Learned and most Ingenious Mr. James Sutherlands Catalogue Phisick Gardner at Edinburgh 4 I spoke before of preserving plants by housing There is some that cannot endure the house who must be set at the South wall the potts sunck three Inches below the surface covered with glass first clothing them with sweet and dry Moss or in prepared boxed beds with folding Glass frames to lift up and down at pleasure because in all seasonable warme blinks of the Sun shoures they may be discovered of all that covers them thus Treat choice Ranunculas Anemonies Amaranthus c. Neglect not to repair their earth as in sect 2 the Oreng Tree Plants standing dry in Winter earthed up or the Earth made firme about them are good means of preservation Neglect not to cleanse all your plants of under and withered leaves superfluous offsets c.

Of drinks as of Aples to make cyder I cannot name our cyder Aples for I use to mix all the ripe at once in the orchard that is of a fine Juice and easie to separat from the flesh and pears that have plenty of Juice and hard flesh though harsh In France they extoll the Rennet cyder in England the Hereford Redstrake Which in France they set at naught they speak of genetmoil and musts some pipens and parmains And for Perry the bromsbury and Ruddy horse pear All which and many more Hugh Wood Gard'ner at Hamiltone has to sel But now the different soils begets alterations in fruits besides the climate yet both defects may be a little helped The first by using all diligence to prepare the ground throughly as is directed in Chap. 2. Fallowing is a most commendable essay The second by graffing and regraffing upon early good fence and shelter round the ground are very conducible To make this excellent Wine provide trough and beatters press and harbag lagallon and tappering fat barrels and hogsheads for even by the common screw press I have made a hogshead cyder in a day be sure your vessells be sweet else you spoil all white Wine Sack-cask or such as keept cyder before I have heard of cyder-cask 3 Inches thick in the staves which I believe is of great Advantage in preserving the liquor but if any be tainted put a little unstaked Lyme Stone and a little water in the Barrell and stop it close when stood a little while and jumbled pour out and wash clean that will cure The fruit being gathered ripe as before let them ly ten or twelve days if summer fruit and near the double of that time if winter sorts but the late ripe that gets frosts is not good cyder mix not with unripe ones neither suffer leaves nor stalks among them When they are small beat put them in the harbag within the press far and so screw them hard again and again and emptie it thereof and put in more and do as before and empty the receiver into the tappering fat and therein cover it close with a canvass till the morrow at that time before you tun it where the gross lee may fall to the bottom then draw it off at a tap three Inches from the bottom leaving that dreg behind The which may go among the pressings for water cyder the clearer you tun it into the barrels the less it ferments and that 's best cyder for often cyder spends its strength to free it self of the grosser parts therefore while your cyder ferments leave the vent pin loose but keep close the bung for preserving the prodigall wast of its spirit and as soon as the working begin to allay drive the vent pin dead to and this will be perhaps in a fortnight if it begins to work Immediatly some times not till the Spring But keep fast the pin till it begins to work and that you mind to bottle of it do as soon as fully clear and fine which is ordinarly at Spring Put a plum great of fine white loaf sugar in each bottle and above all make your corks fast and close then set them in the celler amongst sand To make the water cyder put 1 ● as much water as you had cyder upon the new pressed marce to stand covered in tubs 4 or 5 dayes then press them and boyl the liquor scumming it till the scum cease to rise fast then take it off for too much boyling wasteth its spitits and put in tubs or coolers and when cold tun it up when done working which ●ll not be so violent as best cyder make the pin fast and in a short time it s for drinking A little ginger cloves juniper berries or such may be boyl'd in it if they please your tast The making of Perry differs not from that of cyder To make Cherrie Wine to every pound ripe fruit stampt put a Chopin spring-Spring-water and ¼ pound fin white sugar boyl the water and sugar scum it and put in the juice of your Cherries let it boyl up again take it off the fire run it through a hair-sive and when it s throughly cold put it in a stone pot and after 6 or 7 dayes draw it into bottles putting a bit loaf sugar in each in a quarter year you may fall a drinking it will keep a year if you would have it stronger then use no more water than sugar After the sawe manner you may make wine of Rasps Currans Goosberries or Take currans very ripe bruise and strain them and to every pint of the Iuice put a pound and ¼ sugar into a stone or earthen pot scum it often and at a weeks end draw it off and take out the setlings and put in the liquor again do this till it be fine then bottle it and at a weeks end if
