Peaches.--It is advisable, when practicable, to get the lights off the
early houses, presuming that the trees are fast advancing towards a
state of rest. The practice is certainly not absolutely indispensable,
but it is of much benefit to the trees. Whether the lights are off or
on, attention may now be given to the repairs of glass or woodwork
where necessary, and to finish with a coat of paint and whitewashing, if
possible.
Pines.--The plants swelling their fruit to be carefully looked over in
hot weather that they may receive no check for want of water. Continue
to pot or plant suckers as soon as they are taken off the parent plants,
as they are apt to shrivel much at this season, if left out of the
ground. Attend to the state of the linings to dung pits, as all Pine
plants, in whatever situation, will require a lively bottom heat of 90
deg..
Vines.--The houses containing late Grapes to be shut up warm and rather
early (about four o'clock), in order to dispense, if possible, with
fires, giving air by seven o'clock in the morning, and increasing it
abundantly towards noon, and to be then diminished at intervals, in
accordance with the state of the weather.
