My patch setup has changed. Growing the 839 in a diamond shape pattern. Or at least I'm going to try lol. The 2182 masters will have longer secondaries. Wanted to try something a bit different. Each plant will have 1,000 square feet but that's if we can even fill the space in. I also made the hoop houses smaller to keep the heat in easier at night. They'll be off the plants in probably 2 weeks anyway. I planted some giant eggplant at the end of the patch that you can see with the butternut getting planted near the fence on the far end
