Title: Two sisters
Post by: Barnowl on August 19, 2008, 12:09:15
Probably being a bit thick here since I think they're close relatives, but could I grow marrows instead of squash in a two sisters bed?

Ideally a trailing variety with more but smaller marrows than standard.

Yes and no.. you could but you would be in there picking regularly unless you wanted huge marrows, ideally the system is so that all the foliage dies down and you collect the winter squash easily.
