Re: trellis


hi carleen;

squash and melons canboth be grown on a trellis, however, you have to
"sling" them.  a sling is a sort of hammock that you can make out of
almost any cloth material--old sheets to size are good to use.  i made
an inexpensive trellis out of common "farm fencing"and an old clothes
line holder.

sincerely,

jtflash
