I solarize mine from probably mid-July through Early/Mid-October when I do the transplants. The solarizing bags hold up well; even last year during the hurricane, the EB got tossed around but the bag stayed totally in place without any splitting/holes.
Barb, are you still using the Husky 3mil clear bags? I use those and they hold up really well.
