Vegetables sold early in the season bring many times the price 
of those marketed several weeks later. Fulwood’s Genuine 
Frost-Proof Cabbage plants produce full grown heads from 
two to three w 7 eeks before home-grown plants—and that’s why 
they are real money-makers for the buyer. 
Here at Tifton, Georgia, where my plantation is located, the 
soil and climatic conditions are ideally suited for growing 
tough, hardy, healthy cabbage plants in the open field during 
the winter and early spring. The plants make a slow but 
steady growth and when eight or ten weeks old they are ex¬ 
tremely tough and hardy. In this condition they can be 
shipped to territory farther North and be planted in the open 
fields there a month or six weeks earlier than home-grown, hot¬ 
bed, or cold frame plants. 
These Frost-Proof Cabbage plants will stand temperatures of 
18 to 20 degrees above zero without injury. Freezing of the 
soil or covering of the plants with ice, sleet or snow after they 
have been planted will not injure them unless the temperature 
gets below 18 to 20 degrees. 
Because my plants are so strong and healthy, and because they 
can safely be planted considerably in advance of home-grown 
plants, is the reason for their being able to make large, extra 
early crop—all ready for market during the time prices are 
high. Many unreliable growers are selling plants and calling 
them “Frost-Proof.” In many instances these growers are lo¬ 
cated where they do not have frosts during the growing pe¬ 
riod and, therefore, the plants they are offering have never 
been subjected to the frosts. 
Where my plantation is located we have light frosts all through 
the winter growing season and as all of my plants are grown 
right out in the open field, Mother Nature provides them with 
the strength and stamina to withstand cold temperatures. Be 
sure you buy Frost-Proof plants for a sure crop.
