- I heavily prune my cucumber plants every year. I have had great success in keeping the plants healthy and producing. I also show you how I top dress them, give them water soluble fertilizer, and water them in.
Thanks so much for your support! Cheers & Thanks, Gary!

I’m on my second planting of cucumbers because my first plants died back.
Saw your video about pouring beer at the base of cucumber plants - it works I have been doing that for years but I pass the beer through my kidneys first. It is called the Canadian way to grow cucumbers.
I didn't know to trim cucumber plants like that! Thanks Gary!
Definitely going to plant some cucumbers. Thanks for the tips from Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
I was really doing it wrong. I was trying to make sure there was a leaf for every flower. Air flow pruning will now be my best friend.
Thanks Gary. I owe much of my gardening successes to you👍
My cucumbers have been bad this year, think it’s mosaic virus again, got some new seedlings, see how it goes
Great video. My cucumber and squash plants have made a jungle so I needed this tutorial. I also love the way you're using wire shelves as a trellis. So smart!
Great video…I heard mention of pruning suckers on another channel and I had a hard time figuring out where they were. This is my first year pruning cucumbers and it really makes so much sense. Thanks
Perfect timing, thank you.
Your cucumber plants are beautiful! I had no idea that I should prune mine. Thank you for sharing this information.
thank you for this video.
Excellent tips.
Great video as usual! You must have hands as tough as a bulls a$$😂. If I played like that with my squash or cucs I'd have rash,red marks and scratches all over ! And I have pretty tough hands from 30 years of playing the guitar!
Perfect timing! Thank you so much. It’s my first year gardening. 👍🏻
I ended up with 6 cucumber plants. Four are in large containers, and two are in the ground. They are crowded in with other plants so knowing how to prune effectively when they are small is going to help so much. Thanks👍
Nice tip. I'll have to prune mine. They are growing like a jungle.
Ironically, I just cut back a lot of suckers and bad leaves on mine. They are really healthy, but I have so much growth, the pollinators could not see the flowers. And it was overtaking my raised bed.
What spray do you recommend for fungal diseases especially powdery mildew?
Love all the videos! Garry, is there any chance you could do a few harvesting videos? Maybe what do you pick on daily basis to feed the family 😃
