Hi Tim,

I appreciate your remarks concerning using tulle as row cover vs "real" row
cover. The tulle I have in mind is very finely woven - unlike netting.
However, I'm certain that it isn't UV resistant and most likely will fall
apart quite soon outside. Sure would make a festive-looking garden if I
used all the different colors though!

I have never used row covers before - what do you recommend? I think it
would be nice to have something one could see through. It could get
difficult to bend down and peek under a row cover??? (That could be where
the idea for those yard ornaments came from!) I'll try to find time to
look at the catalog tonight.

Regards,

Marie in Missouri
