Every year I plant ONE cucumber plant. I cannot eat all the cukes
I get and I could give away a couple dozen without a thought.

I tried a new way of staking the plant, I saw it on some garden
show. Take a roll of garden fencing and make a large circle that
you set on it's side. Fix it in place however you have to. The
plants grow up through it and the cukes hang down.

I didn't do it exactly that way as I didn't have any fencing but
I did put square cages sideways, stacked. Worked pretty well, still.
I'll buy fencing for next year.
