Official Patch Setup & Boundary Verification (10' x 15" - 150 Sq Ft) Official day one baseline setup for the 150 Square Foot Giant Pumpkin Challenge.Spent today physically measuring out and marking the exact footprint for the patch. Driven T-posts and high-visibility corner cones anchor the perimeter line, pulled tight with an open-reel tape measure along the edges to verify the dimensions. Ground zero is locked in at 10' x 15' (150 sq ft total footprint). The cover crop (crimson clover and daikon radish mixture) is established and coming in strong across the entire footprint. Soil prep and initial OSU extension lab testing are complete. Photos attached show the side profile, full front boundary views, and close-ups of the tape measure verification against the posts. Ready for the off-season prep ahead. Watch the patch setup video here: https://youtu.be/WaMhhm-uteI
