RE2: Correct Spacing for Zucchini Squash



     >Aren't there some varieties of squash that *will* vine nicely? Anyone
     >know what they are or have experience with them?
     
     Luffa squash has a wonderful cucumber flavor in the stir fry when you 
     pick it young.  It stays crisp and refreshing when lightly cooked.  
     Let it mature and you get bath sponges.  I know that sounds like a 
     strange combination but an old Vietnamese priest told me to try the 
     young gourds and now I am a Luffa convert.
     
     Beyond that?....Winter Squash?...Butternut is GREAT!  I grow that on 
     trellises.
