Heard so many great reports, I want to expand my growing season and get a better yield from my tomato and pepper crop.

These work great for my high elevation gardening. As soon as I put them on my plants the flowers turned to fruit immediately! The only drawback is that I have a hard time monitoring the fruit on the lower part of the plant to see when it is ready to pick and then it is difficult to get to it under the leaves of the plants. This will be the first year that I will have tomatoes and peppers in the ground (rather than in containers) into fall.

In the same self-watering planter box, I planted one tomato plant in a teepee, and another plant with no protection. The plant with the protection is 30%-50% larger by late June and very productive. The results speak for themselves.

Filled the set of 3 teepees and placed one each in the raised beds around my tomato. eggplant and sweet pepper plants.
The tomato is 36-40" tall in 1 month & covered with blossoms, there are a few baby eggplants and I already picked 1 full-size green pepper. The plants were about 12" tall 1 mo ago.

I purchased two packages and out of six units, four had leaks in several of the tubes making the teepee unstable and requiring constant refilling. However, poor quality aside, my tomatoes are larger and I had blooms earlier than ever before. I am not recommending this product because of the quality issues.

My garden abuts the ocean and struggles against the winds and sea mist. While it is still early in the season, the teepees seem to protect the tomato plants against the punishing salt air. They are thriving

I ordered this so I would get tomatoes this year. I was skeptical and so I put it on one plant and left the other one exposed. The plant with the teepee, died from disease. I am not sure if this is coincidence or not.

I started tomato seedlings in Seattle in late May with the Tomato Teepees. They are growing out the top 2 weeks later. I put the teepees around a tomato cage because I was concerned they would fall over.

We have relentless winds and the walls saved my tomatoes and cantaloupes. I will buy more next year

I used the green ones previously, and the red definitely seems to generate more heat. The plastic is durable, and these really do accelerate growth in Spring to result in an earlier harvest. I put out my seedlings 4 weeks before the last frost and leave the tepee on all summer since the cages need to go on before it's time to remove the tepees. In the past, I've been able to wash and reuse these the next season, so they are really an amazing value. (I'm trying them with peppers for this first time this year, and they don't seem to be responding nearly as well as the tomatoes, and the tepees seem too tall.)
