            | TomatoTim | Gone With The Win | I've got a nice tripple blossom but the stem diameter is small and about 4 inches long horizontal. Maybe put pic on diary tomorrow. I really have to support it. Trouble is I topped the plant.I didn't pay attention the long skinny stem lol. | 6/23/2020 10:12:40 PM | 
		
            | Marv. | On top of Brush Mountain, Pa. | I would guess you will have to take a "wait and see approach." Once in a while, I believe we all regret some pruning we have already done.  | 6/24/2020 9:19:31 AM | 
		
            | Little Ketchup | Grittyville, WA | This sounds like an issue for the cucumber board. | 6/24/2020 7:43:44 PM |

            | Little Ketchup | Grittyville, WA | You end up having to support them.  Your truss is bit young to have a keeping-it-up dysfunction... but in the end you have to support them anyhow. | 6/26/2020 1:27:54 AM | 
		
            | Marv. | On top of Brush Mountain, Pa. | I think they have some kind of a support for a stem such as you are describing in the back room at the Adult Book Store. Porkchop, give us some help here. Iceman? These suggestions come directly from the Cucumber Forum. | 6/26/2020 9:39:09 AM |
