The Season Starter™ is a self-standing wall of water which allows you to start your cold-sensitive vine crops a full 6 weeks earlier. It performs an important double function: protecting vegetable plants from cold by night and shielding them from excess heat by day.
How it works is fascinating! During daytime hours, the wall of water inside the Season Starter absorbs heat. As the atmosphere cools down in the evening, the Season Starter slowly releases the accumulated heat (as much as 900,000 calories’ worth!), which keeps the vegetable plants warm at night.
Should the weather drop to freezing temperatures, the wall of water inside the Season Starter becomes even more effective. Acting as an igloo around the plant, the frozen Season Starter releases even more heat, which protects the plants down to 16°F and even melts snow.
On hot summer days, Season Starter is just as powerful in protecting your plants. The water absorbs solar heat and moderates the temperatures inside, keeping plants cooler and protecting them from overheating.
