Plant Insulators: Kozy Koat Water Teepees
Like a mini-igloo for your plants, Kozy Koats are an effective way to insulate against cold weather and harsh winds. A series of vertical, leak-resistant tubes are filled with water and absorb heat from the sun during the day. The water’s thermal mass stores this warmth, releasing it back at night – moderating the climate inside. The Koats also warm the soil below the teepee, allowing you to plant your tender crops weeks earlier than normal for your climate zone. The translucent red color reflects the far-red spectrum of sunlight to enhance plant growth. These garden plant insulators will defend against frost (and snow) down to 10˚F - even if the Kozy Koats freeze solid, your plants are still protected. Works well for early plantings of frost-tender garden vegetables such as tomato, ground cherry, pepper, pole beans, tomatillo, eggplant, squash and melons. Made in Canada by gardeners that are familiar with harsh weather. Priced in bulk for affordability. MIN ORDER 10 - please order in increments of 2.
FILLING TIP: For added support while filling, place the empty Koat around a bucket or pail so that it stands upright. If you have lots of practice carving Jell-O while intoxicated, you can fill these blind folded.
