Dave: Those two yellow stakes are suspiciously positioned, but I’m quite sure that’s just a coincidence. They’re 12″ wooden plant markers, I write varieties and dates on them. They snap easily, and they’re pushed in only maybe 3″ into loose, recently tilled soil. They’d topple over or pull out with the slightest pressure. They look a little tilted, but it’s interesting that they remained standing through whatever happened.

I just re-read this post, I’d forgotten about it. It’s definitely odd…

That is too weird…That stake wouldn’t have anything to do with it, would it?

Thats weird, we had something similar happen to us a while back on our plot.
Part of our plot was covered in a thick black plastic. One day we arrived to see a large semi circle of the plastic missing. It was though it had been cut with a knife. I went through every thing, wind, animals, kids but it was too much of a clean cut for any of the above to be involved in removing this perfect semi circle.
Anyways its still a mystery to this day.

I’ll keep checking back to see if you find the cause of your missing row cover.
Good luck!
