looking out my window tonight. in the foreground is "sunshine" on the 1421.5 x the 1381 on day 29 evening. this is the slowest grower of the patch. nice stretch of weather with lots of sun on the way. this is why we do it to ourselves. doubled up shade cloth will be covered with silver reflective top/bottom color white tarps if and when temps go over 88 along with up ward tilted 12" vornado fans under canopy to help expel hot air under tarp and helps keep tarp and pumpkin cooler too. lots of watering equals me staying on my toes for powdery mildew prevention.
