Nude Gardeners

A group for fellow gardeners from around the world.

So, who is the local cucumber expert?I have a plant, put it in the ground next to some Matos and some greenie peppers. Dang thing has gone wild but hasn't produced just yet.My question is: Do you tie up/off or brace cucumbers? I have tomato cages on the matos but I heard a rumor you can string cucumbers for better yield.Any advice would be awesome!
Stay nude my friends!

I have had great luck training the cucumbers to grow up a string. They will go up at least 8 feet with cukes all the way.

Thanks everyone. I will try trellis - guess we will see how that goes. I did plant them raised in a mound.
Thanks again!
