Mini-pumpkins grow on long vines. You might be able to grow them up
the side of the house, if you give them something to cling to.

No idea about the size of the pumpkins themselves, but if they're anything
like canteloupe, you'll want to support each pumpkin with some sort of
mesh
sling. Pantyhose works.

Mini-pumpkins are really small, and shouldn't need any extra support.


It's interesting that nobody has quantified the word "small" so far in this
discussion. You say "really small", and I'm thinking grapes, but I'm being a
wise guy. Are you picturing pumpkins the size of lemons? A softball?
