Both plants are just incredible. I noticed the white fruit plant was very heat tolérant. We met the first hot day at 32C ( around 40C inside the polytunnel without shading mesh) but none of the leaves flagged. The Orange fruit plant did stressed a little bit. I made a mistake regarding the watering set up. The driptapes going through the lenght of the tunnel are pressed by the weight of the vines and the pumpkin from the first plant. So, most of the water is dripping at the first plant and much less at the second plant ( the Orange fruit plant).
To be improved for next year...
