FULL TEXT Vertical Gardening Part 1 As urban gardeners, we have a limited amount of space to grow our vegetables and flowers. What I have done is I have employed verticle gardening. Right here as you can see, I have a variety of different cucumber plants. Now, a cucumber is vining crop, which means that with vertical support like this one, you can train it to grow up and the fruit, Take a look right here, can grow perfectly fine on the vine. Different types of crops that work well in a vertical garden are watermelon and pumpkin. Let us go take a look. Here, as you can see, my pumpkin plants are thriving. Pumpkin plants are also vining crops. Now, in the country, where you have a lot of space, you can just let this grow along the ground, but here in a city environment, we do not have all that space. So, what I have done here is, I put together a dog kennel. This is actually really nifty. It is exactly 4 x 4 so it fits perfectly in your raise beds. And, these vines just slough on themselves eventually. You do not have to continuously train them. Okay, so you can go vining crops on vertical supports, but there are other types of plants that also need support like my heirloom tomatoes here, this are Tiffin Mennonite tomatoes, and it grows to be a huge …

well, this is a good way the back in the path again, today is a garden in your roof, tomorrow could be a cottage in the fields
I though you were going to show how to make the trellis, you use the drill, but how do you put it together?
Aren’t pumpkins and watermelons too heavy to hang from a vine? I can understand cucumbers hanging from a vine that’s on a fence, but a big old pumpkin or watermelon? Won’t that just fall off or drag down the vine?
I love your report. I live out on a farm with over 16 acres and I love to grow UP rather then all over. These are great techniques to share.
I remember reading something about the vines being strong and thick enough to hold them.. something like they thicken and strengthen as the melon gets bigger.. something like that.
I would worry more about the strength of the support.. She is using a dog kennel for the heavy stuff. Which is a cool idea really.
@LitCrit101 Actually I’ve grow a 5 pound pumpkin just holding to the vine. (I’m even showing it in my lastest vid) And it totally grew without touching the ground =)
@14CPO sadly I agree =S

yes really great hair do you know what kind of fertilizer she uses?
i use powdered rock dust from Canadian glaciers mountains.. once you have this others are obsolete.
and i am a entertainer, even more than a gardener…so i relate to making the stage grow before all else in this clip
This technique becomes extremely helpful when one may or may not have a plethora of useless dead bodies that one may or may not have accumulated over the years.
if it looks as if it is going to grow too large to support itself you can always attach a fabric hammock to the support structure and the fruit can sit in that.
I’d hit it.
She looks like that female cop from the show “Manhunters”.
Thanks a lot for the subtitles, it makes it more easy to comprehend!
garden girl, you are my hero! I’ve been gardening for over 35 yrs. and I have learned so many new ideas from watching you!
thank you and keep the videos coming.

wow, unlimited near free new dog kennels spring up, free left over goat fencing around the house with no goats! like the immaculate conception! How fortuitous! She is truly blessed by miracles. How dare anyone say watermelon & pumpkins will rip the vines off fencing as they would in a normal persons garden! Physics clearly doesn’t apply in miracle garden! where free stuff appears when brand names mentioned, that would make gardening for you cost many x more than going to the store for veggies.
How much space does a big heirloom tomato plant need, if you grow it vertical?
