Excellent presentation!
English is my second language and I was pleasantly surprised to understand everything in detail. No where else I could find such a thorough explanation about all parts of the plant, the pollination and tips about healthy growth and rich harvest.
Thank you so much!!

Your English is a lot better than most native speakers 😎🥂
There is nothing better than fresh cucumbers and tomatoes out of the garden.
You are my go to master gardener. Your presentations are always excellent, informative and easy to understand. Thank you for all you do for us aspiring to have healthy and productive gardens.
I feel like I'm in a gardening class 😆. Thank you Gardener Scott for your expert tips.
Fantastic, succinct, and informative video. Thank you, Gardener Scott!
I’m back for a refresher course. I had my best cucumber harvest last year after listening to your advice. This year, starting tomorrow, I’ll plant my succession cucumbers.
You are a wonderful teacher. If you were my instructor in college I may have stuck around.
After more than 40 years of growing my own vegetables I am still looking for tips to improve my gardening I love this video. You explain every detail very clearly and wisely. One thing that I plan to do next year is to include some flowers in my veggie garden to attract more pollinators to my cucumber plants. This year was the first time that I did staggered planting of my indeterminate English cucumbers. 3 weeks after planting my first set of seedlings that I raised indoors, I put more seeds in between the already growing vines on each side of my arched trellis. After watching your video I realized that I should have planted the seedlings on just one side of the trellis and later planted the seeds directly in the ground on the other side of the arched trellis. Regardless of my mistake, I am enjoying a second harvest. I am doing the same staggering with my pole green beans.
Try borage! I hardly ever saw bees in my garden (other pollinators but not bees) until I planted borage. Now they're everywhere and everything is well-pollinated. Borage is also edible and medicinal.

The best way to get ‘more’…..plant MORE
Been thinking about whether or not to prune the suckers. After watching this, I’m on my way out the door with pruners in hand. Nice video!
It's the same with tomatoes.
I want to echo others' comments that this was the most thoroughly explained video on the growing habit of cucumbers. I knew there were two basic types of cucumbers, but I never understood what the difference between a slicing and a pickling cucumber was. Equipped with the information you have given me I'll have more success in the garden.
I never knew about pinching off suckers in a cucumber plant. Thanks for the tips Gardener Scott. I have planted lots of cosmos and other flowers to bring in more pollinators.
Very helpful! This might be the first successful year for cucumbers in my garden. I’ve tried for 3 years; Third time’s the charm!
i learned a ton from your video; pinching out new branches, keeping lower branches and leaves off the ground, growing vertically, improving air circulation. I love cukes and didn't know that hidden maturing cukes would shut my plants down. This gives me hope that i will have a better crop this year. Thanks!
It's easy to get more cucumbers than one knows what to do with. My favorites are the Asian/Japanese cucumbers, they are so fresh and crunchy tasting, but also juicy. I find that some of the best varieties of vegetables/fruits are the Japanese varieties.
We’re in England. Where do you get the seeds for the Japanese cucumbers.
@@homeandgardendiaries6384 Norway... no seriously where?
I had problems growing spinach, then I planted Tatsoi instead. Love it!
I love any peppers that come from Japan. Shisito and this year I am trying Manganji
The Japanese cukes are the best for me too. Crunchy, long, excellent taste... drizzle them with vinaigrette dressing -or- marinade them in the dressing first thing and eat for dinner. Glorious cukes! However, any irregular watering of this veggie can cause cukes to be bitter. It will ruin the taste and you'd toss them to the pigs. This year, I decided to grow Suyo Long and Lemon cukes -- the latter as an insurance. The Lemon variety is prolific and I harvest everyday to enjoy the crunch and the fresh taste!
You looked like Jeff Bridges in the thumbnail
I really enjoy meeting you in the garden, Mr Scott. Thank you for the channel.
Last year was my first time growing vegetables, pickling cucumbers were my most successful one and they gave me the taste of freshness that I have never experienced before.
I will use your wonderful tips this year to have better and more harvest. Thank you!
Here in Arkansas, we have a LOT of Snakes, so I trellis everything I can!
Best video I've seen on raising cucs. Been gardening over 50 years. This will help new gardeners learn how to raise cucs. Enjoyed. Thank you.
Terrific video, thank you! I'll certainly be applying all these ideas. You've also answered my puzzle: why, in last year's diabolically cold London summer, did I get only *male* flowers on my squashes - because the plant never managed to grow large enough for female ones!
Thank you so much gardener Scott! Your tip on hidden cucumber was spot on! My plant is now 5 foot long with many small cucumbers, growing and more blooms coming, but plant the is starting to yellow. After watering your video yesterday, I just found a large overgrown cucumber fruit at the beginning of the plant hidden in grass! I picked it and hope the production will continue. Thanks! 🙏
Perfect timing. We had a downpour of rain today and the cukes got knocked down. Now I realize that the reason they fell is because of the over growth of the suckers. They are short enough still that it is fixable. Thanks Scott. Really appreciate all your info.
Also loved the 4-way junction explanation for crawling plants. Thanks!
You are a fantastic teacher!
That was so thorough, thank you❤
I just want to say THANK YOU Gardener Scott! I love going back to these videos as a guide. I am planning on starting some cucumbers from seed today and I have a new bed with a similar setup as yours to eventually plant them in. Your vids are so informative and inspiring. CHEERS!
lol i think cucumber is one of the plants that gives so much, we pickle a ton for the winter. i love sweet pickles.
Thanks Scott for the first video I’ve seen that explains and shows, the benefits of pruning cucumbers. In the past I gave up pruning down low, as I was just guessing, and ended up with a lot of short growth flopping on the ground. Apart from the short growth looking sick and not producing much fruit, it’s far harder to pick the produce.
Terrific information, thank you!
Thanks Gardener Scott - so calm and pleasant in your presentation. Very clear and detailed also! Loving these tips!!!
Excellent, clear presentation as always.
Excellent timing! I was planning on planting fall cucumbers tomorrow.
Thanks Scott…been busy pruning my indeterminate tomatoes…now it’s off to the cucumbers…We really appreciate all your helpful hints! George from Danbury, CT USA

You are an awesome teacher!!
Nice video Scott , great explanation for growing cukes.
This has been the best video on growing cucumbers I have seen. Thank you!
Wonderfully taught! Thank you!
What a great video, thank you for making these so people can learn how to grow their own food.
I do not have enough bees in my area to polinate anything...so I pollinate my cucumbers myself by rubing the stamin of the male flower onto the pistal of the female ...I carefully pluck away the male flower petals and hold onto just the center stamen then I insert that into the female center and rub it around a bit..the pollen gets transfered and i ALWAYS get cucumbers that way. Bees are becoming more and more scarce so this tip might help some of your growers.. It helps my crop 100%
Best explanation i found! Thank you!
This is the best cucumber video I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much!

I made every mistake he mentioned when growing cucumbers this year, but I still got a ton of cucumbers to harvest. I found one hidden in tall grass that was 18" long.
best video I have seen on growing cucumbers, thank you! Very helpful
Great tip to add flowers. Would never has thought of it.
Wow! My new favorite video on cucumbers
Thanks for video and very helpful tips. Loved your presentation
Thank you! Now I know what I'll do with my cucumber plants.
awesome tips .All i wanted to know u just covers all the questions.thanks a lot.
Dear G.S, Peace and thank you for the videos. Just an update. I've got tons of aphid eggs (I think) on my cucs, but my cucumber season is coming to an end here. There are tons of tiny, black dots and the leaves are all dying, but that's normal for August. I only had enough for five pickling jars this year, but I did see a few different types of lady bugs towards the end of the season. My two good things this time are that my vanilla orchids, which I had on life support for almost a year, are much healthier and happier. My second is that I was able to start my first gallon of watermelon wine yesterday! I even made the yeast, and I used mostly things from my garden to make it. I also pickled some watermelon rind!
Ty fora wonderful teachings 😇💖
How interesting. Thank you sir
Extremely organized presentation very well done, thank you
Thank you, good info
Thank you for n wonderful schooling video once again learned a lot from your presentation God bless
