I got some on sale years ago. I think they work don't know about 16 degrees. I don't use them that early. I have planted in March and got a head start. I put some sticks inside the wall of water in a tepee shape to hold them up. At first I close them up pretty tightly at the top and as it gets warmer I spread out the top so the plant gets more air. After frost and cool nights are past, I slip them off before the tomato gets too big and then I protect the plant with something for a day or so. The part of the plant in the wall of water is used to protection from the wind. I use them for a few early plants; they are not that easy to fill and place but fine for a few plants.
