I Like Growing Big Plants, What Should I Grow?
| |
I like growing plants, especially fruits and vegetables. Not so much flowers since they are nice to look at but you can’t actually taste the fruit of your labours…
I want to grow something big… what do you recommend? If it doesn’t take up a ton of space with metres upon metres of vines that would help.
I’ve thought about watermelon but I’ve heard they need a TON of water, almost swamp-like conditions.
Maybe pumpkin… not sure if I want a jackolantern type of pumpkin,or one of those big edible ones which are actually squash I’ve heard.
My dad suggested sugar beets but I have no idea where I would get the seeds from, I’m not a farmer. I think all stores sell are red beet seeds.
Maybe corn? I’ve tried but never gotten it to start growing.
Any other suggestions?
I live in Canada… southwestern Ontario if that makes a difference.

you can grow a super dwarf canvendish banana. these bananas are great with a little food and water. only grows 3 feet tall and then makes small, but delicious flowers once it reaches a full height of 3 feet.
also the mus basjoo banana. this is a cold hardy banana that may survive outside. they make unedible bananas, but having a banana plant in a northern climate is great. musa basjoo is hardy to UDSA 5b which is a planting zone that has mimimal temperatures of -15 degrees. the musa basjoo is a dieback plant which will look dead after the first frost, but with some mulch will come back from the ground in late spring.
How about cantalope? Or a cherry tree
mussa banna plant, i have one that is over 16ft high and it growing fantastic flowers and mass of fruit
grow weed cuz u can taste it or smoke it
pass on the sugarbeets. The are not edible. I tried when I was in Idaho.They are like liek wood almost. Howver if you grow them in the very southern part of california which has a very long growing season, one beet can be 60 lbs.
Peaches will grow in your area, but they are a pain because they are susceptible to so many fungal diseases and aphids.
I grow 10 foot sunflowers and shoepeg corn tops that. Runner beans both green and lima will climb a trelis or the corn and sunflower stalks. RScott
Grow Marijuana Thats The Best Answer Its A Beautiful Herb And Its Profitable.
I was going to say a Banana tree until I read where you live. Too cold up there for that….maybe an apple or cherry tree since both require a cold winter before they produce a good crop. Grapevines also do well up there.
