What vegetables grow on trellis?

Many vegetables thrive when grown on a trellis! Here are some popular choices:

Vines:

* Cucumbers: Trellising helps keep cucumbers off the ground, preventing rot and disease, and allows for better airflow.

* Tomatoes: Most tomato varieties benefit from trellising, especially indeterminate types that grow tall and sprawling.

* Beans: Pole beans are best grown on a trellis as they climb high.

* Peas: Similar to beans, peas climb and need support to grow vertically.

* Melons: Some melon varieties, like cantaloupe, can be grown on a trellis for better air circulation and easier harvesting.

* Squash: Some squash varieties, like zucchini, can be trained to grow vertically on a trellis.

* Pumpkins: While pumpkins are often grown on the ground, they can be trained to grow vertically on a strong trellis for larger pumpkins and better airflow.

Other Vegetables:

* Lettuce: Some loose-leaf lettuce varieties can be grown on a trellis for a vertical garden.

* Spinach: Similar to lettuce, spinach can be grown vertically for space-saving and better ventilation.

* Radishes: While not a traditional trellis crop, some gardeners grow radishes vertically to save space.

Tips for Trellising:

* Choose the right trellis: Select a trellis that's sturdy enough to support the weight of your plants.

* Train your plants: Regularly tie or clip your plants to the trellis as they grow.

* Provide adequate spacing: Give your plants enough space to grow and thrive.

* Water and fertilize regularly: Trellis-grown plants may need more frequent watering and fertilizing.
