Can I cut back Cucumber Plant?
Hi,
I have a cucumber plant growing in a large pot in the conservatory, it is about 7 foot high and has about 14 cucumbers on. However its starting to take over, I dont know if it will survive outside so - can I call it a day and nip the top off the plant and be happy with what fruit I have ? Many Thanks Rick |

Simple answer is yes, I have done this and in fact in some cases got more cucumbers on side shoots. -- Chris, West Cork, Ireland. |
