I've ALWAYS grown from seed indoor, and transport them into the garden last. They need warm soil and that's important! Otherwise the roots just do not thrive. Thanks for a great video.

I had the worst diseased cucumbers ever this year from all the rain. I couldn't keep up with it. I only got to can 4 qts of pickles. Thank you for this video it was really helpful and I will keep this for next year!

Never grown Cucumbers. This broke it down great and I like the little hacks like the nets. Thanks, hopefully will grow some next season! 🥒

I really like your style. Keep up the passion!

Hello and thank you. Nice information. Take care

cucumber roots aren't fragile. I transplanted TWO-DAY-OLD cucumbers to bigger containers because they grew so fast, chopped half the roots cause they were already root-bound, and there was no wilting or anything. they just went back to growing immediately.

1 thing you missed is there are certain minerals you can add to soil to help too. " The veggie boys" recently talked about this for cucumbers, zucchini and other plants .

I'm in zone 8b in east Texas and it's HOT. Been mid 90's to 100 every day. My cucumbers in large pots were dying and horribly wilting. I covered 40% shade cloth and in about a week they recovered, but I'm finding those yellowing and dying leaves and spots, especially at the bottom of the plant.

The cucumber beetles have already killed all my cucumber plants this year in southern new hampshire. Their population seems to be getting worse each year, it's so frustrating. I'm going to have to try kaolin clay.

In the south I can't plant full sun . All the plants fry in 95+ weather .

I asked so many gardeners about using Sevin 500 insect hose spray. I used it because I was seeing a lot cucumber beetles and lantern flies. But after I used it, my plants started to died, why? So I started to used DE and 3-1 organic spray

[jamaica]

Did I miss the part where you told us what brand kaolin clay works & how to mix??

[jenduke]

I have a scroll shaped design in leaves. Any ideas? I have them growing vertically and support

[NOSBtkb]

Great tips, how do I do pumpkins which have to grow on the ground? At least that's what I would assume because of the weight of pumpkins

[santosvasquezjr]

Where do you get your seeds for cucumbers?

[blenderbenderguy]

Thanks! But I'm not seeing the link mentioned on how to prune cukes.

I'm not personally fond of cucumbers but I love butternut squash, which seems to have many of the same appearance and characteristics. I've so far used direct sow or just gotten volunteers (which have done better yet -- because they grew out of old compost and seem to love very rich soil). The only real problem I've had has been powdery mildew in late summer. Do you expect most cucumber tips carry over to squashes?
