Anyone use cloches

for transplants? I bought these with the thought of using over the melon starts (planted out mid to late May) and maybe the eggplant, since they both like the soil quite warm. Also thought they might help minimize losses -- something keeps having a go at the melon transplants -- not sure if the birds are ripping them out or some ground-level insect, maybe the cloches will protect them until they're big enough to hold their own. (entire vegetable garden fenced off with board-and-post fencing enclosed in chicken wire, and the wire is buried at least 6", so it's not rabbits or some such creature that gets them). Anyway, have you had success using cloches?
