Hello Steve, The Wall o' Water is a neat device that allows gardeners in cold areas to plant out seedlings early. It is a teepee of plastic that has channels in the walls that are to be filled with water. You place the teepees around seedlings and fill the channels with water. The water absorbs heat during the day and as the temperatures drop at night, the stored heat is slowly released, keeping the seedlings and soil warm. Haven't used them myself, but its an interesting idea! Alison
