Re: gourds ie. hanging squash

Jessica:
        You mentioned growing squash vertically.  How do you do that?  I
mean how do you support the fruit?  I've heard of using "panty-hose" but
that seems an awful expense (none used around my house).  I thought of
making slings out of netting but that seems constrictive.  I's love to hear
your ideas.

>Traditionally grown as other squashes. However, if you can grow winter
squashes such as acorn or melons vertically  I would assume gourds would be
no problem as they are significantly lighter. Let me know, I am doing some
next year. Jessica
