My cucumbers are growing like vines what do I do....

[BrianSkilton]

hmm, I wonder if it would be to late to plant a few in the back?

[hendi_alex]

I pant succession plantings of cucumbers. My most recent plants are only a few inches tall. Will plant at least three more times between now and late September. For your area, surely you can get one crop between now and frost!

[BrianSkilton]

Yeah, should be I would think. I'll have to do that tomorrow.

We love squash here. Is it hard to grow...

[hendi_alex]

Easy to grow, gives a fairly quick harvest.

I ust want some cucumbers and grilled zucchinis

[GardenerGirl]

Squash is almost absurdly easy to grow, in my experience. I've never not gotten a harvest from it, even the time I planted it in the sand they'd used to fill in behind our brand new retaining wall. Weeds were not growing in that patch, but I got around 12 zucchini from my two plants there, despite always forgetting to fertilize.

Well I woke to zucchini buding thru I was shoked I count 7 new little plants no clue how it happened the rain has just killed me the last 36 hours. My cauliflower looks a little shocked

So would a tomato cage work well as a trellis for the cucumbers? I don't have enough room to let them grow flat. I also was going to put some vegetables in pots. Could I put the cucumbers in there instead and have a trellis over them?

What about zucchini? Same thing?

I bought plants yesterday and have to plant them this weekend.

TIA!
