    I live in AZ but we have a lot more wind than you…..a vertical garden would be salad before being harvested.

    What are you using for those trellises, the metal ones? Where can a person find them? Loved your video glad I found your channel

  3. good AM

    lovely garden. One question: does metal trellis burn plants due to metal getting hot
    ?

    I love this ! Thank you for the tips ! I just purchased a few 7×4 panels from Home Depot and the electrical conduit/rebar/plumb fixtures to get started this weekend with some trellises, Thank you for your vertical videos you are the greatest !

    Can you please tell us where you get items like the vine clips like you use on your tomatoes and the netting used to support the watermelons. Thanks.
    I highly recommend your perpetual planting calendar to others, (especially in our zone 9 in AZ) I bought one last week, and it was in my mail the next day. It's very durable and a great size. It is so much better than the alphabetical charts. Well worth the price. I'll be ordering a second one soon for a gift for a family member who also gardens.

    I grow veges on an old bed spring hung on a fence. They have lots to grab hold of and the bed springs were free.

    Thank you so much for this informative video about veggies that’s need support, I can’t imagine how I will have fruits without it 👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️🍅🍆🥬🥦🥒👩‍🌾👩‍🌾👩‍🌾

    What is a ground cherry? I saw them in Home Depot when I was getting my vegetables but I am really curious. Is it more of a fruit or vegetable? Thank you! I live in AZ and I love watching your videos!

    … another good one for the trellis is sweet potato vines for the greens … which you can substitute for spinach ..

    When I try to train my cucumbers up a trellis, they won't climb it and seem to stop growing? But if I let them sprawl and vine all over the ground they grow huge and produce. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I've been trying and failing to trellis cucumbers for going on 10 years. I just installed 2 giant trellises in my garden and I hope I can get it together to successfully train the cucumbers and gourds I plan on growing this summer.

    You have an amazing garden 🪴
    I love running veggies …so lush n green …Happy Summer to you n keep sharing these amazing tips 🪴

    with vertical rather than arch trellis, does it hurt the plants to prune them back a little to keep them on the trellis?

  33. Bluethunder

    Great info, it just gave an idea to add vertical trellises to my raised 4’x8’x3’ high boxes, they should fit perfectly on the ends where I normally plant 6” in for the rows, this will give me a whole bunch of new crops, thanks.

    I only have a passionfruit plant producing right now. It is so satisfying. Plans are to build another trellis and try to grow beans or squash. Beautiful video as always! 🌱🥰

    Anredera cordifolia is my most "productive" vine vegetable (noxious weed, except that where I live, winter kills it unless stored). I like snake melons (Trichosanthes), luffa, red yardlong beans, and hyacinth beans for ornamental vegetable vines.
