The following should be attached to a plastic
zip lock bag containing Cheerios.
WHERE
TO PLANT BAGEL
SEEDS
Any bright sunny location, preferably close
to a delicatessen.
WHEN TO PLANT
Year around, but onion bagels grow best
in winter, while poppy seed and pumpernickel grow well in summer.
CARE OF PLANTS
Plant in seven equal rows, running north
and south. You may make the middle row longer. Join all rows with one
long east-west
row, for irrigation and to form a menorah. All seeds must be planted at
least
four feet deep. Any less depth and the hole in the bagel will not
develop properly!
Irrigate sparsely, with boiling
water only!
NOTE: Over-irrigation or cold water will cause your growing bagel to
become soggy. Soggy bagels are not good for anything.
While it is possible to grow bagels topped with cream cheese by
sprinkling the blossoms with fresh dairy cream, you should contact a
professional bagel grower for expert advice. Some unkosher growers will
use fertilizer, but that does affect the taste and texture, even if it
does hasten the growth. However those who like egg bagels have had
success using fresh eggs as fertilizer.
TO EAT
Cut cross-wise. Never, never cut a bagel
vertically. Ladle on lox and cream cheese (you were warned only experts
could
raise bagels already topped). Use when ripe. While day-old bagels may
be toasted
and eaten, any older and they tend to fossilize and are only good for
missiles.
Beware of over-ripe bagels!
GUARANTEE
If you are not 100% satisfied, dig up your
bagel seeds and return. A BRAND NEW package of seeds will be
sent to you.
