I tried planting corn. It`s too bad that I have a really clay base and most of my garden is in raised beds, and they do well, but none of my plants that go in the ground, sadly, because then I would have a bigger garden.

If you can, get some straw and put it where you want to improve your soil. It'll draw worms and compost down into lovely soil.
Thank you so much, I was using straw as an insolator for a small building so I still have lots of straw and hay under there to use, that has to come out.
So sorry about the surplus of clay! It sounds like you'll have a corn wonderland of composted straw soil soon though thanks to @mandireiserra's great advice! Hope to hear about you having a giant garden one day😊!
Don`t get me wrong I have a big garden, I use the height to go. I have lots of beans and peas. My partner built me these.
That is one awesome trellised box! Dang!
I love them, I had 22 bean plants in one and 22 peas plants in the other, just made it from scrap wood and painted it a couple years ago, it does not take up a lot of space in my backyard. I am a strong advocate of growing heights for more
Nice! I totally agree with you, vertical gardening is the best! Even though I have loads of space I send a lot of things towards space. Beans, indeterminate tomatoes, peas, cucumbers, a few varieties of squash, trellising is cool. One of my favorite trellises is a cattle panel bent into a rainbow. You trellis box though is so pretty, thank you so much for sharing!
I am trying small watermelons on a trellis this year, will post pics as they climb. Follow and you can keep up to date, following you now. Thanks and keep posting
