We Love you anyway @catjac1975 ; but the video IS WAY COOL!

Folks up here grow some big-un’s for the fair every year, I wouldn’t have the room, the time or the patience for that.

Sweet words. But I thought of your greenhouse when watching it. I once saw a PBS special about an Alaskan backyard farmer that grows all giant vegetables. I guess the 24 hour sun has a hand in it. At the time I never knew anything could be grown in your climate.

It is interesting to see the use of poles in guiding the vines. Slowing the video down let's you see more of what is happening.

I will try that!

That's amazing! I recently got a camera that can do stop motion and thought about doing a plant. I don't have space for a vine that big though!
