Maori Calendar for September.
This is the month for hard work. Finish sowing your wheat; in the middle of the month begin to sow barley, it brings a good crop and sells well. Sow some eats for food for your horses; oats are better food than maize, and less trouble to grow ; plant patatoes and onions, sow peas, cabbage, and turnip seed, and in warm places pumpkins and melons. Chop up all weeds, especially sowthistles, for they harbour slugs.
