as for zucchini, I heard they take up lots of room...but produce a lot
-
I grew acorn and butternut squash on fencing (2" x 4", but need heavy type posts and I used heavier gauge wire).. I trained the vines so they would go vertical. worked great
-
same for green beans and cucumbers on fencing
-
I had more room though, did ~7 foot fence growing ( maybe 8')
-
garden area about 30' x 25' maybe
