I don't prune my cucumbers - I let them grow where they want

Are they in a greenhouse of outdoors?
Do you know the variety? Is it all female?

Trying to get an idea of what you're growing and how!!

Can you be quite heavy handed ??

thanks in advance,and sorry if its been asked before, but I cant seem to work the search thing v well

We are in the same bucket as you! We have 4 plants in the polytunnel and are growing like mad and are wanting to know about the care needed for the plant. I am posting here so I can check back easily.

Our plants are reaching the top of their 120cm bamboo 'tripod' I put in when planting out. Would anyone with experience know whether it would work to have a strong wire up to the roof to support the vine as it grows vertically. (We are growing vertically in buckets to save space)
