I have 3 builders 1 ton sacks - full of either well rotted horse manure stable shavings or 'pure' fairly rotted manure collected from the field, mixed with a little poultry muck. My idea was to utilise these as beds for some pumpkins or squash this year as it wont be needed until next season. While looking for some suitable seeds, todays impulse buy was a lovely spaghetti squash plant about 18" long already and starting to flower. I also have a spare courgette plant looking for a home.
My idea was to put these in the builders bags but am slightly worried about what I'm reading about the size of the spaghetti squash plants. Most sites seem to be American and climate differences may be important, but some suggest they run for 5+ meters?
Anyone have any experience of squashes in this way?
