Besides Cucumbers and vine beans, what other vegetables do you trellis? Can I trellis Spaghetti Squash? Or will I need to help them with slings? I plan to put cattle panels out to trellis some things, but want to figure out which things I can successfully trellis before putting it in the garden. Thanks for any help!!

You can trellis squash for sure. I've seen some designs that look like a tee pee with branches or boards running on a couple of sides for support. The cattle panels should easily support the squash, you may just have to train them through the holes as they grow... hope that made sense. |

Cantelope works with a sling for the fruit. |

Great, thank you for the suggestions. I was hoping that the strength of the cattle panel would hold more weight than other options. Happy Gardening! ![]() Blessings, Janelle |

Mix in some morning glories for beauty or for a trap crop! |

Yep, I trellis my cucumbers, pole beans and cantaloupe type melons. |
