Been getting a bit of cabin fever and now that my seed selection is done and dusted I just had to get to the plot today. Here is the first of my pumpkin houses (this one is 15 ft long). The sheet plastic on top is quite dirty, i'll give it a clean but am happy with it as it will filter a little of the sun to prevent the early leaves from getting singed (happened last year). I'll make and add the side frames (most probably from glass) once I have finished adding the ammendments and have put some ground cover down to warm the soil. Aim is to start a little early this year so I will need to get it nice and warm in there and will need to add a small tunnel inside as well.
