6mil Clear Plastic Is Down

It is getting to be close to being able to remove the pumpkin. Almost all of the preparation work has been completed and once the 18” Atlas HAV fan is taken down then the hoops will be removed, so I can set the tripod up and then drive the trailer in. This is one of the advantages of having a cold frame, because it is not a permanent structure and can be completely remove from the field. The process may take a little time, but part of the challenge of design and set-up has been to have a fully functional structure while still maintaining portability.

After this image things got busy as I was trying to get everything done before the sun set so the next entry will be the pumpkin on the scale after its 4 hour drive north.
