THE DODGE PLANT FARMS are located in the Lower 
RIO GRANDE VALLEY, The Southern tip of Texas, which 
is also the most southern point in the United States. Tempe¬ 
ratures are mild here and we are able to grow our plants 
in the open fields without protection and have big field 
grown plants ready to go earlier than from any other 
point in the United States. Our first plantings of cab¬ 
bage and onion seed are made in October, first plantings 
of egg plant, tomato and pepper seed are made in De¬ 
cember. Plantings of all continue until in April, insuring a 
supply of plants of all sizes and varieties until the end of the 
shipping season. We can usually supply big field grown 
tomato plants for setting direct in the field as early as it is 
safe to set them out in east Texas and from plantings made 
weekly we are able to supply these big plants in all varieties 
until .June 1. 
We use one standard size of crate which is one third 
larger than the usual plant crate for packing all sizes of onion 
and cabbage plants. Our 6,000 size onion plants average 
pencil size, other sizes are larger plants. Most of our cus¬ 
tomers of years standing find the 3,000 and 4,000 sizes in our 
onion plants and the 1,500 and 2,000 sizes in cabbage plants 
the most popular sizes, as these larger plants w 111 stand 
severe weather and unfavorable growing conditions better 
than smaller plants.
