If you try again I would make sure that the soil does not go dry and may bey add some compost in it, really sorry about the delay, Huw
Thankyou!
I NEED ADVICE – I HAVE GROWN 2 CUCUMBER PLANTS – I AM CANADIAN SO CUKES ARE USUALLY A SUMMER PLANT. BUT HERE IN MALAYSIA – ITS SUMMER ALL THE TIME. IN 40 DAYS
THEY HAVE REACHED 14 FEET – I CALL THEM JACK AND DIANE – OUT OF THE MANY SEEDS I PLANTED I GOT ONLY 2 PLANTS TO LIVE. BUT IN A WAY THANK GOD – AS THEY ARE HUGE. THEY ARE GROWING IN A STYROFOAM ICE COOLER – THE SOIL IS AMAZING COMING FROM THE BUSH FIRES – THEY ARE HEAVILY FERTILIZED – DEPENDENT ON THE GROWTH AND THEY ARE WATERED – BY HOSE – THEY ARE BALCONY CONTAINER PLANTS AND I AM ON THE 14TH FLOOR – SO DEHYDRATION COULD BE AN ISSUE EXCEPT I HAVE A GARDEN HOSE – AND THEY ARE WATERED EVERY 4 HOURS – THEY ARE IN SHADE – FROM 1PM ON WARDS – EVERY DAY .. BUT AS THEY GROW LIKE JACK AND THE BEANSTALK – AND HAVE GROWN – ON THE TRELLIS – WHICH IS NOW 12 FEET – BUT THE PLANTS ARE NOW ABOUT 16 FEET. I CANT KEEP UP AS THEY GROWN A FOOT A DAY .
