| We live in the woods, with a large open area for the garden. I grow cucumbers up a swing set lined with concrete reinforcing wire. This year, the cuc vines are all growing in a south-easterly direction up the trellis, instead of straight up. This has never happened before. Just wondering why? Maybe the trees at the edges of the opening have grown enough to make the strongest light of the day be in the southeast?? Just seems weird this year. |

| I have always had to train my cucumbers on a trellis. They've never trellised by themselves. |

| I get them started at the bottom, then they go on from there pretty much by themselves. Who knows, maybe I got them off to a Southeast start! :) |
