How big a pot do you reckon it will need.  Can it be transplanted without probs.

Thanks

I use 18" or larger as they are very vigorous when they take off. Potting on or planting out does check them for a while so keep it to a minimum.

Thats a big pot.  I'll have to put them in my tat pots when emptied methinks.

[DD.]

They're big plants!

Dependant on variety, they can run several metres in all directions.

Hi, why do you want a pot whats wrong with the ground.

I use my garden, haven't got an allotment and the ground is full up, in the sunny spots.

So spot on mumofstig

If you live up north alot of terraced houses do not have a garden so pots are all you can use.  But its amazing what you can grow.

I am growing Hunter butternut squash, three of 'em, in buckets.....ina a garden!....................I have no space for them to go, BIG mistake on my part.

Every morning I think they may pop off, but no they seem intent on growing, at the moment I am eyeing up the garage roof for them

Hi, sorry you forget not everybody has 4 poles to fill.

[mumofstig]

  yeah! like we've all got that much land

[sclarke624]

Well the seeds were free, so whatever happens  :blink:.......happens :blink:.  If I was actually buying them  I may of done some research first  and seen how much space they take up.  Hey Ho!!

When I am short of space for roaming squash (butternut trailers) I encourage them to share the bean-frame. 

It worked well the last few years and was good finding butternut fruit hidden once the beans had finished...  :happy:

But... I am not so sure my 1st trial munty-frame will support hefty butternut 

If growing in pots / tubs, had you thought of a trellis?

the plants are big. I think in a pot would be a big job watering ect
