DIY: Tomato Nursery, the Water Wall

By Ken Hoyt

The Plant Frost Protector, Wall O' Water Insulating Teepee is a great device that absorbs the heat from the sun through the day and keeps plants warm through the night. Just the few degrees difference can mean a lot when you're incubating tender young tomatoes.

This year I've gone a little crazy with the tomato patch and exceeded my store of six Wall o' Water units. Which meant that I could upgrade to a new one in red (which is supposed to make for even happier tomato plants).

Off to Google go I. Seconds later I discover this post about DIY Water Walls made from 2-liter cola bottles. I'm trying it out (see photo). But I'm not giving up my tried and true Wall O' Waters.
