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.

Thanks, I tend to be overly enthusiastic and I'll add your experience to try and temper my natural inclinations.
