If what you say is true, then I live in a PRIME pumpkin growing area. The
average highs in this area ranges between are over 70 degrees May through
October. The only thing I would need to do help mimic the northern days is to set
up some artificial light source.
As I recall, some years ago, Wayne Hackney, had the "brilliant" idea of
lighting his pumpkin patch so that he would hopefully get a bigger plant and a
bigger pumpkin. Although he was realizing that the additional lighting was not
helping, the experiment was never completed. Someone stole his lights.
