Re: Alaska rain-rain-rain
Basically, it is like constructing a mini-greenhouse that you put on the top of the boxes. Because it is clear plastic, it lets in the sunlight, and concentrates the heat to allow for earlier and later growth. It might be helpful in Alaska. There is a section in the book about it.
