What kinds of things do you guys use to shade your pumpkins?

I think most people just use tarps on u-posts or pvc. I used a shading fabric on a wooden frame.

Old bed sheets work fine! Burlap also works well.Just tie them down to 4 tomato stakes.

I bought some shade cloth at Home Depot. One roll was beige and the other one blue. I used a combination of 4ft. redwood stakes and/or T- posts to hold up the shade cloth. Suzy
