So today I put the the relective boards together. The vegetable garden is not in optimal sunlight (but I haven't gotten the heart yet to bring the trees down that are shading it). I decided to experiment a bit by putting some relective mylar onto boards and see if the heat loving veggies (tomatos, cucs, and peppers particularly) will respond to some extra reflected sunlight. I will have to be very careful I am expecting so as not to scorch things either though. I figure nothing ventured, nothing gained!
I also put in three seedless grape varieties into some makeshift trellising (similar to the other square foot ones made with electrical piping and rebar). I know that I am attempting an organic and heirloom garden but my concession to hybridization is the seedless grapes...I really hate seeds in grapes what can I say!
