This cucumber weighed two pounds. In 2007 we grew cucumbers in a large pot and used a tepee-like trellis for support. I spent the whole summer watering - about twice a day. The tepee-trellis wasn’t enough support for our 6'4" tall cucumber plants. We added two white trellises. In 2008 we used a water-reservoir pot and trellis designed for tomatoes. We got 13 huge cucumbers. My kitchen garden (container garden) from 2007. Cucumber vines attach to anything nearby. So the following year, we moved the cucumbers away from all the other plants. A cucumber flower at the end of a baby cuke. Another cucumber flower. Heart-shaped cucumber leaves. A 'green anole' lizard in the cucumber vines. See the cucumbers? Growing cucumbers is fun. Can’t wait for the 2009 trials. | top | return to photo album index | Images copyright ©2009 by Sondra L. Schlossberg. All rights reserved. |
