In this video, I share with you two different ways to grow butternut squash or winter squash vertically. Squash is a great crop to capture the energy of summer all the way into winter. However, squash plants take very large portions of land to grow, which makes it difficult for a lot of urban and community gardeners. In this video, I share with you how you can grow winter squash vertically, using two different approaches. One, you can trellis the main vine of the plant to grow vertically and two, you can grow the main vine horizontally, on the ground, while trellising the side shoots.

I planted already and am going to let the main vine go toward the fence so I can then grow vertically and have more room in front to plant something else! Thank you for this video would love to see more!!

Thank u for the information. I did not know that the vines themselves send out roots and I never knew that it's better to start the seed in the place they are actually going to grow. I grew them one time without much success due to the fact they were grown in poor lighting and soil conditions. But I have a better focus on it this year and I am more determined than ever for this season.

They are a great crop!! Have their challenges but not terrible. The storability is pretty amazing! So definitively worth a second try! I am glad you learned something new via the video. Thank you for the comment.

Good video, I'll be trying this with my butternut. The idea about trellising offshoots was great!

Awesome!!! I am glad you think so. I realized it is a way to get the best of both worlds, growing plants vertically and horizontally.

The second method sounds interesting. I‘ll try that one this year.
@GardensofNewEngland
@GardensofNewEngland Год назад
Yeah! I tried this past year and it works pretty well. What I would do more of, is to encourage more roots by adding soil to different sections of the main vine.

Now I understand why my honeynut squash had several setbacks in the last couple of years. Then again, it does not help that it takes 4 months for the fruit to mature and the vine has to deal with the Scottish weather. Our summers are shorter than 3 months.😂

Starting indoors could help in a big pot, or start outdoors and provide weather protection. That can give you a few weeks.
@wonderfulherennow
@wonderfulherennow Год назад
@@GardensofNewEngland The big pot idea might work. The weather protection is going to lose anyday against this British weather.
@GardensofNewEngland
@GardensofNewEngland Год назад
@@wonderfulherennow Good luck!! Sometimes covering a tomato cage with some clear plastic can work. You want some warm soil though. So, probably the pot idea is better, what I would do is to create a bottomless pot encased into another pot so when you are ready to plant you can just slide the plant into the grown. The challenge with squash is that it does not transplant well, so the less disturbance to the root the better.

How are you handling vine borers?
@GardensofNewEngland

If you root multiple sections of the plant it should survive and do well. I remove the old plants from the garden at the end of the season. I usually don’t get them on winter squash, mainly in the zucchini plants 100% it seems. I try to keep adding soil to root new sections of the plants so they survive the attack. Some folks scar the stem of the young seedlings to harden them. I have tried without luck.

About how many squash do you get out of one plant on average? This is my first year growing and I’m going to use this method.
@GardensofNewEngland
@GardensofNewEngland 4 месяца назад
Depends on spacing, 4-6. You don’t get as many as if you let the plants run wild. But you can get bigger size if you keep to 2-3 main vines and cut the new vines that emerge- just like you would manage tomatoes.
