...And its snowing again.
I'm considering trying an extra low hoophouse this year. As long as its easy to slide the plastic on and off... basically I'd only have the plastic on at night.
I need a way to supress weeds also. I already used a lot of straw, and some weeds are skilled at getting through the straw. But I might try even more straw. I dont see tarps or cardboard adding to the health of the soil later in the summer. I might want to irrigate with the warmest water possible, because if I put straw on thick the soil will be 50 degrees all year. It would never warm up to super-pumpkin growing temps. Too bad straw isnt as cheap as it used to be...
