2294.5 Noel 2019 Outdoor Plant

Here is a closeup of the chosen pumpkin on the outdoor plant. The main vine is growing on weed block so direct soil contact is limited. Holes are punched in to allow rooting. The stake is where the umbrella support is to help shade the pumpkin and keep rain water (and potentially for hail) off the pumpkin as well. This system seems to be effective and it is also easy to set up.
