I am also employing something I learned from the Ag-Experiment station at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks. They call it "Cool heads and warm feet." A layer of clear plastic on the soil surface 10 x 10 feet (I use the cheap thin painter's drop cloth plastic). I stuck a thermometer in it yesterday during sunny weather and the soil temp 6" down was 80 degrees.
