HOW TO GROW A PUMPKIN ARCH / EMMA'S ALLOTMENT DIARIES

One of my most requested videos is how to grow a pumpkin arch like I did last year. So in this video I aim to give you all the advice and tips you'll need to create a pumpkin arch, just like I did in 2021.

I'll be doing a grow-a-long on here and on my instagram (with @pumpkins_etc) in March 2022 so you will be able to grow when I do!

PUMPKIN VARIETEIS:
Baby boo
Jack be littles

This year I'll be adding: patty pans and Uchiki Kuri too!

Here are some other ways you can follow me:

If you water the ground before putting the posts/stakes in it is far easier.The soil also forms like clay around the base with the wet mud.Hope this is helpful, a kind wise gardener once shared this with me so I'm passing it on

There u go. U get 1st prize.

I have to say this was such a good video and achievement. I will be copying this idea in my garden. Hope it turns out well.

Hi Emma, I’ve been watching you for over a year now and your pumpkin archway was my fave! It inspired me to do it this year. I’ve got Jack be little and honey bear acorn squash seeds. Just need to get those arch’s ordered!
Love your videos, as do my kids! You’ve really inspired us to get growing 💕

I don't have an allotment but I do have a very small back garden so I Built myself a "repurposed wood" arch after watching "Jessie at plot 37" and was so happy with the results from french beans so this may well be a second planting idea. thanks Emma.

Well done on your pumpkin arch, loved watching them grow over the summer.I have a triple arch similar to yours and grew butternut squash, pumpkin and courgettes up mine as well as sweet peas. Going to try mini pumpkins this year too after seeing yours do so well.

Thanks for the information on the small pumpkin seeds. I ordered myself some after watching you.

A nice down to earth video and a great harvest.I have a packet of the jack be little to sow but have to find those baby boo as well.

"Im just making it up" I love this. That earned a like and sub from me. Great video, thank you.

[tommydaviesx]

I'm definitely going to have to grow one of these on my plot! I think I might make my arch out of coppiced sweet chestnut :D Love it!

[bevcroft]

Can't wait to join the pumpkin challenge finished my double arch yesterday

[alisonreid]

Well done Emma. What an achievement! Although I'm a very experienced gardener myself, I've never done a pumpkin arch before. However, you've definitely inspired me and I already have small Turks Turban pumpkins on the go so I'll get my arch ordered from Wilko. I'm in the north of Scotland so I might have to leave it a bit later before I plant them out / whack em in! X

[diasporagardens]

Thanks for this. I just love growing pumpkins and squashes but never have enough space. I will try the arch.

[countbasingstoke]

Yes 🙌 this is an awesome channel! You have such a great sense of humour hahaha love it! I’ll be trying this over next few weeks. I have an arch for grapes 🍇 and will be growing pumpkins 🎃 for the first time ever:-). Take care :-)

[staystellar]

This was really funny, but also helpful! 😊

[kikik]

I love this. It's hard to grow pumpkins in Alaska because our season is so short.

[umarah]

Thank you for this amazing video. Can't wait to try this
