On another note, I'd get your son some good sunglasses for working out there near that plastic. You don't want his eyes to get damaged by too much light as that seems like it would be similar to snow burn on the eyes.
Thanks! We just poke holes in the plastic and stick the roots into the dirt. It works really well to keep them from rotting in soil. My son has a pair of Raybans he was just not wearing them in that squinty pic. He is so fair skinned we always have him slathered in sun screen usually with a hat and sunglasses. Poor guy burns in the shade. Lol.
