A few days behind schedule, but still progressing nicely. Over the week I dug a six foot by six foot and 1.5 to 2 foot deep ditch for each plant and refilled it with a generous amount of peat moss and alfalfa meal. Built really simple hoophouses, PVC pipes anchored to rebar and covered with plastic sheeting, over each one, and yesterday I planted my giant pumpkins and squash along with a good sized dose of mycorr. Each plant received a couple gallons of water with a light solution of fish-seaweed.
