Plot No 2

Plot No 2 is the sharing of my allotment.

Gem Squash

I was looking around for trellis ideas and found this at trellis
and must give it a try this year. It will go at the top end of the allotment where the broad beans are already in. Beans and pumpkins/squashes make good companion plants.



























 

This Montagnard trellis design was built with forethought. As the young squash and melon plants below it continue to grow, their vines will be trained onto the trellis. Once fruits begin to form, they will be suspended from the trellis, making them easier to harvest and protecting them from insects and disease.
