Ok, up here in chicago I have built my first and second earthtainer, cool. It won't be too long until planting. I have read about putting bark fines on top of tainer during the hot hot time ahead. What are bark fines?? Sorry for the newbie question.

Well there's a lot to read right here at Tomatoville: bark fines

Then there's Google: bark fines

The issues have been debated till they are pulp.

I found that Lowe's sells them, and they do sell as "bark fines"

Do you happen to know the brand? I haven't been into my local Lowes to look for "bark fines" myself but online this is the closest thing I can find:
