I also didn't use the EB covers, because I received them after the plants I had started were already pretty big (no cutting neat little Xs & popping in a seedling), but I did cover them, w/ some red plastic mulch, that's supposed to help tomatoes-it seems to be working ok, no weeds, lets the rain through. I'm happy with my EBs so far & will probably add more next year...Thistle
Problems Dealing with Earthbox
I ordered mine via internet and didn't have a single problem...got the entire kit, when I called CS the girl on the phone pulled up my order ASAP and told me when FED EX (I think it was FE) was dropping it off etc. Course now I need to order new covers I'll probably have to go round and round.
