Here’s a photo of the hut I have to make every night for my plants because of the cold. It’s been getting bellow 40 degrees at night for the past couple days and my parents don’t let me run any electricity into my garden. So I built a PVC frame with my dad that I put over the pumpkin every night and than wrap in blankets. Than I take gallons and buckets of steaming water and place them under the blankets with the plant. The hot water warms the area keeping it above 60 degrees even if it gets below 40. The plant continues to grow a couple inches a day even with this freezing and super cloudy rainy weather. Once the sun and warmth comes back the plant should kick right back into gear and start running again with no hesitation.
