My new patch is 15 ft by 50 ft. How many plants would you grow and where in the patch would you start them. Thanks all.

Do 2 plants. Start back to back in the middle or one plant at each end. See Gordan Tanner's drawing on maixmizing the length of the side vines in a narrow patch at: http://bigpumpkins.com/DisplayPhoto.asp?pid=2851&gid=-3085

my original patch dimensions are very similar to what you have. I grew two plants in that area. For years i grew them at opposite ends toward each other. Last year i planted them in the middle, slightly offset, and grew them in opposite directions. I liked how that worked out much better. I wouldnt do more than 2 plants in that space though.
