I'll post some recent pics of my Bosworth 711, and Fredricks 754. both at 14 feet, Bosworth is attempting to set fruit...I have shade cloth, more shadecloth, micro sprinklers running every 1/2 hour...praying one sets, despite the heat....they are surrounded by other plants,tomatoes and corn, soaking the woodchip paths, anything to promote cooling effect...I know Im not a purist, with a pumpkin only garden...hope the respiration of the other plants helps shade, cool the pumpkins while they get going.
