EarthBoxes

Just got 3 EarthBoxes! Any advice?

My tomato seedlings failed (started them too early when we had a warm run back in February, followed by a dismal March and April), but I've got snap beans ready to go and might pick up some strawberries. I've seen rumors on the internets that pumpkins can be grown in EarthBoxes, but I've never grown them at all before so I don't know how they'd do (the ones I have are small, for cooking.)

ETA: Tag request for "container gardening" or "containers"?

No advice on the Earthboxes (never tried them) but that "warm run back in February, followed by a dismal March and April" sounds suspiciously like the weather here in the CA bay area. It was so cold and wet my peas rotted in the ground, and they like cold weather!
