Hi Dennis,

I have used Wall-O-Waters for about 5 years now. I also use them with
squash and cukes as well as eggplants and tomotoes. They work great when
used properly. You need to make sure you set them out full of water to warm
up prior to planting within them. I am also in zone 5, but last average
frost date here is May 7. I plan on setting my stuff out in Wall-Of-Waters
about two weeks prior to last frost date.
