I wouldn't, but I can't give you a good reason - it sounds like you actually COULD. Can you tuck the other squash in around it and trellis them?
Can you tuck the other squash in around it and trellis them?Well, my Pumpkin is already trellising ITSELF: It has attacked and insinuated itself into my tomato ring; it puts out suckers that strangle any plant it can get ahold of, and I have been very proactive in disallowing that to happen. It is reminiscent of having to follow a toddler around and taking things out of their hand, over and over, constantly.
The baby pumpkin itself is in there, about a foot off the ground, hangin' out with his tomato neighbors. I figure I'd just let him be, as I do not want to do anything that puts my sainted pumpkin at risk.
As for trellising the Spaghetti Squash, I just don't have the room now. I am considering digging up and discarding my basil as it keeps trying to go to seed; I just cut down my sunflowers, and that has given me a little breathing room for a week or so.
But yeah, I'll investigate the trellising option.
I have been trying to get my wife to allow me to dig up more of our lawn and convert it to raised beds, and I just gotta keep harrassing her about it; I can tell I'm wearing her down!
