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 extremely 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 located 
where they do not have frosts during the growing period 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.
