AUTUMN CAULIFLOWERS.
Strong sunshine following upon dull, wet weather has a tendency to cause the protecting leaves of autumn cauliflowers to droop, just as the heads are forming. To overcome this disadvantage, gather all the outer leaves of the plants carefully around the centres to a point and lightly tie them together with some such soft material as raffis, so as to protect the heads from the sun. Much better heads will result from this simple practice, and the season of use will be consequently prolonged.
