this pic my be a re-peat but this is looking down at the set up from the angle where the fan sits. you can see the edge of the small fan in the foreground up high. it is set on low and just slightly rocks the plants back and forth. this is the same set up for my pumpkins as well which will not be too far off. i will start on saturday 4-23 this year since i pollinated about 5 days earlier than i wanted to last year which was june 12th. i like the sounds of june 17th and on more like it for first tries at 11' or 12'. i also have a space heater in this room downstairs while root development explodes with the small sprouts with the temps around 80. i will cool off the temps down to 70 in a few more days but like warm soil on small sprout roots in the initial development stage.
