Day 75 for the nice orange pumpkin on the 839 Sandercock and day 62 on the getting more orange every day 1995.5 Hoornstra pumpkin at the top. Weather appears to be improving for the next 14 days and if there is no threat of rain, I’ll likely remove the roof covers on the hooptie houses and let the sun heat up the pumpkins again. It’s been so cool and wet here, the core temperature of everything has fallen, so time to warm things up. After collecting some heat during the day, we will cover them again with quilts to hold in some heat during our cool evenings.

I’ve been looking at somehow glenngineering the existing infrastructure of my deer fencing posts and using wiggle wire and additional posts to fully enclose an area at least large enough for 1 full size plant for next year.
