March 16 – A plastic bag is fine until they pop through but once they start to grow they will need room. So Art helped me build a mini-hothouse out of PVC pipe and plastic sheeting. It was pretty easy and went together fast. Art cemented the joints so it wouldn’t come apart when I took it off to water the plants.
I had the plants in the peat pots sitting on a small table. We built the hothouse just a bit smaller than the table and about a foot high leaving room for the plants to get a good start before I put them in the ground
The table fit nicely under the trellis where last year's gourds are hanging to dry.
