The yield nnd quality of many veg
etables can be Increased by pruning
and pinching off center buds, thus
throwing the energy of the plants to
the formation and ripening of fruit.
With muskmelons and cantaloupes I
always pinch off the center bud of the
main vine when it reaches a length of
four or five feet, says a writer. Cu
cumbers are treated In a like manner.
Such treatment results In Increased
size o f the fruit and a hastening o f
maturity. For the same reason the
ends of pole and lima bean vines are
pinched off when they reach a height
of six feet.
