We are getting some cooler nights now. Each pumpkin has a support structure
for
an overhead tarp and I have "curtains" also made of cut up tarps that
wrap
around the supports. I put a blanket on each pumpkin with the biggest
one also
getting a comforter. I have found that the curtain systems
significantly helps
with reducing moisture in the enclosures and keeping the
blankets dry for the
most part. I have read about growers putting a light in
the enclosures to add
some heat. Anyone do that? I need to eek out what I
can on weight since my
leaves have gone to hell.
