How do you grow zucchini vertically?

They will creep upwards, as a vine. Just keep an eye on them and fix them gently to a nearby tree or frame if it seems necessary. They'll head upwards for the sun. I have pumpkins, planted by passing birds, which simply crawl up trees growing where the vines have to climb to reach the sunlight. They do this without any help from me, and against all probability produce huge heavy fruit which doesn't fall to the ground under its own weight. If it works for pumpkins, it has to work for zucchini. People have told me creeping plants prefer to do their own thing rather than be tied to a frame. I cannot vouch for this, but I do know our pumpkins are the biggest and heaviest I've seen. So if you have trees with trunks out of the sun, plant the zucchini at their base and the vine should head on up.

Can you plant cantaloupe by zucchini?

Yes, you can plant cantaloupe by cucumbers.

They do NOT cross-pollinate as they are different species. Only species fof the same species or closely related species may cross. Non-species crosses are extremely rare and usually sterile.

Cukes and pickles cross with each other. Cukes do not cross with melons, canteloupe, honeydew, guords, squash or pumpkins.

Canteloupe and honeydew can cross.

Pollination doesn't affect the fruit of a plant because the genetics of fruit production is set in the plant which is grown from the seed of the previous year. Cross-pollination within species would affect the fruit of the seeds in the subsequent year. In other words, rogue pollination of your cukes by your neighbors nasty pickles would not affect you current year crop of cukes, but you wouldn't want to save and plant those seeds expecting the same variety as you will have a hybrid which may or may not even be similar in taste.
