RE: Planting baby leeks Someone has to do this
I don't think I've ever seen such a simple manner of lifting cucumbers! That single string is so handy, do you continue raising that as the cucumber plants grow?
Leeks may be no fun to plant but boy howdy are they fun to harvest and eat!
We keep guiding the plants (clockwise) on that string but our height is fixed more or less. (We can move it sideways left or right only a bit winning some lenght and make the angle better. ) Sometimes the heavy cucumbers cause the plant to slide down again but that is a matter of harvesting in time the cucumbers.
Oh beautiful! So they can just grab on and hang out.
I once saw a method of low flat trellaces that allowed the squash to be picked from where they hung underneath the trellace.
I love learning new ways of guiding plants for easy management. Good to know this single string method works well! Thanks for sharing @goldrooster 🙌
