   Wonderful row cover made of plastic. Easy to use and works well protecting plants in cold weather. I use it as a second layer in a greenhouse over my bed of lettuce, spinach and beets. It is about 18 ft long, 1 ft wide and about 1 ft tall after putting into the soil. The hoops are pre-made into the plastic for easy placement and removal when temperatures climb or just when no longer needed.

   I’m very pleased with this product. The plastic seems thick and sturdy. The tunnel is not very tall, but perfect for shorter seedlings and plants.

   I wanted to put some of my plants earlier this year to have first harvest in June. In April, during the days the temperature in New England area is good for germination but there is considerable danger of the night frost killing your new seedlings. So this cover (two actually come in a package) sounds perfect when you have long (up to 18 feet) rows that you want to protect. It goes in relatively simple (though two people putting it on and off are preferable) and stays put even under heavy wind and/or rain. I noticed that the temperature inside the covers is considerably warmer then outside (I put small digital thermometer remote sensor) and the covers would not obstruct sun rays from providing energy to your young crops.

   I can’t judge the durability but hopefully it would last at least several seasons. The construction does not inspire much confidence but so far there is no visible degradation.

   Now, one issue I have with these covers is how to keep ground underneath them moist. Rain does not reach it and the ground will dry out quickly unless you water it at least daily. But to do so you need to completely remove the cover and then put it back on after watering. This is a real hassle. I could probably buy an irrigation hose to roll it under the cover but now the whole setup becomes considerably more complicated and not to say more expensive. If I can solve the issue of watering, I would consider this a very good purchase and highly recommendable to anyone living in the colder climates.
