Experiment update

So my experiment worked great! the dogwood branches were retrieved and were bendy and sturdy enough to make a frame to go over the tomato bed.  All that was left to do was plant the tomatoes and cover it with some plastic.  Then Jen came up with an even better idea...why not just leave them in their 4" pots for a few more weeks and cover them with the seed lid?  It's working great (and tied to the fence in case it tries to blow away!) and in another few weeks when they are too tall for the lid I may re-create my fabulous cloche bed cover.  Some of the pics are on the other camera which I can't find the cord to so I'll have to add them later but here's the one's Jen took today.

 Here's the lid with the tomatoes underneath and me being a dork with my tied up twigs, I'm saving them for future projects even if we don't end up using them for this project.
