friday may27 was the warmest may27 ever in belgium.Till 34°C. My plants are looking awfull.Temps in greenhouses(wide open) went up to about 50°C. I hope they will recover. Next week 17°C predicted. It's hard to be a pumpkin plant in our region..

And 34 with high humidity, I guess, which is worse in order to refresh with water. Hmmm. Maybe you should try with fast moving greenhouses and independent watering/misting systems.
34 here is no problem, as we don't use covers and our humidity is already low.
Good luck, friends.

I put a white sheet over the top of the greenhouse when it starts to get too hot. It works fine so far and no sunburned leaves this year YET....
