This video shows you three ways to vertically grow cucumbers. It will save you space, cut back on disease and increase the production of the plants. Tomato cages, a chicken wire trellis,a standard fence and even an apple tree are great ways to grow your cucumber vertically.

What's the purpose of leaving the cucumbers in pots
This is a good idea.

Great ideas!
Good Stuff !
Great idea for my peas and cucumbers,I only have a 12×12 size garden,and in the past my cucumbers would take over the entire garden with only 2 plants….soo now I can plant in containers vertical with plenty of room for my tomatoes….thx for sharing.
I had an idea to grow sweet peas up my apple trees.
I spent most of your video clicking off the added notations so I could actually see the video. :(
Ty 4 sharing. We are often useing octopots but I like the idea of bottomless buckets. That way it's easy to get a good heathy ant started b 4 it hits the yard which could just be top soil. I made the mistake of not iaei g a trellis for my crooked neck squash and it took o er too much space, covering my peppers. I am def. Useing a trellis….or my apple tree. :)
Thank you so much Gary for your videos. I'm new to this and learning so much. I was wondering if you could tell me if it's too late for me to use a tomato trellis on my cucumbers if they've already "vined" out pretty well. I heard that their roots are very sensitive. This is my first time growing a garden and was NOT aware of their sprawling capabilities. Thanks again.
Great garden, especially the vertical cucumbers. How many days do the Armenian Cucumbers usually take to produce fruit? Im growing six different varieties of cucumbers, and all except the Armenians are producing cucumbers…
Good job they look healthy !!!
Love your garden! I mistakenly planted a bush variety cucumber plant in a planter without a trellis, thinking it wouldn't need one. Now the vines are on the ground and I'm worried the cucumbers will get eaten! Can I add a trellis after the plant is quite mature?
I definitely want to try this next year. Thanks for the good advice.
We just started our garden and making videos!!!!!
Very nice vid. I'd love to control your squirrel problem hehe had the same problem, except they loved my berries, especially my fav's raspberries. Buy a pellet gun and be patient. kill count now over 7
Thanks! I thought about growing them on a fence and let them hang down. I like this tons better.
Just planted my first cucumber plants ever. Trying the Miracle gro pods, now I need to build a trellis. Wish me luck!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Can you tell me why you planted the first cucumber in half buried pots? Why not just in the ground? Thank you!
Hello! Nice place. If I plant cucumbers in tomato cages in front of my tomato plants, will it block too much sun from getting to my tomato plants? My garden spot is small. Thanks! Again nice place you built.
