D,
P-30 or P-17 remay is good. P-30 has more frost protection. Don Fleming is
in one of the coldest places in Vermont. He has 4by 4 posts in the garden
about 6 feet high with smooth plastis lids nailed to the top of the posts, so
he can pull the remay over without tearing it. The trick to remay is to keep
it off the pumpkin plant. If it lays on the plant, you will get frost damage.
You need an air space between the plant and the remay. P-30 is probably good
down to about mid 20's. If it is colder than that you will need aux. heat.
