Not cucumber-related, but how do you deal with the large June bugs. They’re all over our pears and a few on our beans. We are just slightly north of your county. Please advise!!
What’s your opinion of bt for pests?
@@casual454t1 definitely another great source for gardening info ♥️
okay buddy LOL your still a baby thinking you know it all? the cucumbers,, yes you do where(you)grow them, definitely pick the cucumbers, they'll flower more and produce more, but I planted them on one side of a trellis like yours, they grew through the trellis on the other side and there's still alive(and producing very well) but from where their roots came from, from the original place where the plants were planted,, are die ,ing(and the cucumbers were picked off of them regularly!(the dying side) the crop was just to much for them to deal with producing more! oh my I grow 20-30 cucumber plants in the same space you're growing two! and I get hundreds of cucumbers
your garden is horrible at least what I see? I see some plastic greenhouse plastic? if you're going to spend money, invest in covering all your plants with greenhouse plastic! don't let the acid rain on them, or the rain,,but wash with clean culinary water,, then they won't drown either LOL! unless your soil doesn't drain or it's made of clay and you haven't added decent compost every year and during the year
I didn’t expect to get so emotional. I just wanted some cheerful gardening tips.
I had no idea that cucumbers suffered from such anxiety! 🤣
Great video!
Some plants thrive on neglect. Not cucumbers! They love attention. The more time you spend hunting for fruit, the more you'll be rewarded.
Almost everyone has anxiety nowadays...even the cukes. 😂
We should be glad they dont own guns
My cucumber saw the shrink every week last year. Anxiety and panic cured
Biden's fault
I brought mine back by taking it to a tony robbins seminar. It decided to keep living to become an artist.
😂
Lol😅
😂😂😂
😅🤣😂 But, did she donate money??😂
It was pledged, same exact thing. -Amber Heard @@christy032866
I've never seen a gardener anthropomorphize cucumbers before, but you made your point!
Well done!
Me either!!!
I had no idea cucumbers were that existential. I was wondering what was going on with my cucumber plants. Great advice! Subscribed!
Hahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🌱🌿🪴
Some plants thrive on neglect. Not cucumbers. They love constant attention. The more you pick, the more you get. Thank you for subscribing!
@@TheMillennialGardener absolutely. We are inundated with marketmore slicers and boston pickling cucumbers because my boyfriend finally believed me when I told him we MUST PICK EVERY CUCUMBER before they turn yellow.
@@TheMillennialGardener - NOT EXISTENTIAL IN MY EXPERIENCE. Just imagine years from now when A.i. does all of the gardening. Had a strange gardening experience this year, hard rain daily, and very few seeds even came up from the ground. I did get a ton tomatoes.
I'm thinking it might be time to have an intervention with my cucumber plant and take it to counseling. There's more to life than cucumber seeds
This man never wastes our time! He moves.... He shines! Very useful info.
Thank you! I really appreciate that.
Fabulous video. So informative. I'll definitely get more than 3 cucumbers this year after watching this 😀
Well, almost… “this mistake” had me on edge for two minutes, a long time nowadays
I noticed that just before reading your post, straight to the point.
I'm constantly telling my friends about him!
If you’re a new gardener, don’t get discouraged. Keep searching till you find a solution. Great info here. I would add trellising your cucumbers on an angle to make it easier not to miss any cucumbers. Garden on fellow cultivators of the earth! 😊
All my gardening life I thought I was a cucumber failure. So much so that I stopped trying to grow them. You sir are doing the Lord’s work. New subscriber here!
Me too!!
Same!
I feel so hopeful now, lol!!
Seriously.
Same!! I decided to try again this year, def trying this method!
Same in RI
You are so right! I didn’t realize this until this summer. My husband and I can never eat all of the cucumbers that I grow. Even though I give plenty away to neighbors, I always seem to miss a few on the vine. This summer, I have had some workers doing a small construction project for me. I told them that they could take whatever they wanted and bring it home to their families. They diligently check every cucumber, squash, and tomato plant before they leave, and the plants are fruiting more than ever.
👍
Make relish.
I wish you were one of my customers. Fresh vegetables as a tip is a win if you ask me.
I just have to say it makes me SO happy when my husband comes home w vegetables from his clients House Im not to grow vegetables this year 😢 his excitement when showing me is ❤️
Dehydrate them thinly sliced with some lime salt, better than potato chips
The mistake is letting cucumbers stay on the vine after they’re ready to harvest.
😂sounds like letting your adult kids stay in your house!!😂🤣😅
That's what he just said
I missed that part lol
@@carollund8251She kindly wrote the answer in case people want to know without having to watch the video.
I love the way you get right to the meat of the issue. No unnecessary info. Only facts. Thank you!
I gotta be honest, I came to the comments when I started watching to find out the advice because so often these videos have so much filler, but didn't have any more time than to get to your comment because I heard him giving the advice. Right on ! Subbed
"it no longer has a reason to live". So true, direct, and brutal. Youre mu fave gardening youtuber, keepnup the great work!
Eureka ... you cracked the code!!!! I am an old lady -- granddaughter of farmers -- and everything I plant inside or outside the house absolutely thrives ... except the cucumbers after we've been on a short vacation, or when I've overlooked a cucumber hidden behind the foliage. Thank you for this invaluable information. I plant "Summer Dance" cukes, and they are never bitter. Sweet and crisp. Thank you so very much.
OH MY!!! That's exactly what happened to my cucumbers last year!!! The year before I had a wonderful harvest!! Last year I was so busy and did cut off yellow cucumbers and I recall being so upset that regardless of what I was doing, my plants were dying!! 🙏 Thank you SOOO much for this information ❤️
I tend to start new cukes every six to eight weeks anyway because they get so big and unruly and sometimes yellow. Though that could be my fault for neglecting them a bit much 😅😅
We forgot one and when we tore up the original cucumber plant to compost it, we ended up with a cucumber plant in the compost bin next year.
What do you feed cucumbers to get the most yield? Organically
Plant cucumbers every 90 days? LOL that's just about all the growing time we have in the far north.
Yes, here in northern wisconsin we are lucky to get 90 sunny days.
Right same here in northern Pa
Ditto in Massachusetts.

I love how to the point this video was, not filled with useless jabbering. I appreciate it! Ive learned a lot, thanks so much!
That is a really helpful piece of advice for a first time cucumber grower, thank you from Devon UK
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
@@TheMillennialGardener I find mine stopped flowering, but it may have been because a few went yellow, also trying to run them too long, you are awesome dude keep going
@@TheMillennialGardener I love both your channels. Growing my first cuke plants this year and am so very thankful for your advice! I have earthboxes I am growing in from like 30 years ago. What brand are those black pots you are using to grow in?
This is my first time of growing them in Kent UK. And I have found 1 is growing today,but having to grow in greenhouse coz of the weather here,not really like you get in hot climates...well not usually lol.
Thanks for showing how you pull out the entire root and can reuse the same planter if the plant died naturally. It’s the little things like that which help us newbies.
5 year gardener here, and I just learned something today!! Thank you for sharing this simple yet so important tip. New subscribers as well! Happy gardening!
Don’t allow them to turn yellow. Check it daily so it doesn’t get too mature.
Succession plant new seeds every 6-7 weeks.
Got it, thank you
My first ever cucumber plant has produced many cucumbers over the last 3 months. Unfortunately it's now dying, and now I understand why, as I missed one of the cucumber which started to turn yellow. I have learned so much from your video, thank you.
...maybe some lucky soul will end up with a mutation that causes blue or purple fruits - like happened with green beans. If you get that variety, it is super easy to find the fruits.
Craziest thing I ever heard of. How do they even get cucumbers to grow. I just found this out and now mine will die. I'm planted two so I'll watch the other one.
I just started growing cucumbers this year and have watched countless videos. I feel like I got more out of this one video than all others. Bravo 👏 great video! Thanks 😊
THANKS!!!!!!! This has answered a question I’ve been struggling with for 40+ years in Johnston County, NC!!! Subscribed.
This was the most helpful video I've ever seen about cucumbers. I've always been wondering what I was doing wrong.
I'm glad I could help!
Right after I watched this video, I went outside and was working in the garden - and I found three HUGE cucumbers! They weren’t yellow yet, so hopefully I got them in time! Thanks for the tip!
So appreciate the visual examples! Now I know this is exactly why my cucumbers die off too soon, there’s always that one cucumber I miss!
getting older, with older eyes, I've decided to only grow white cucumbers 🙂 Lemon Cukes, Dragon's Egg cukes and silver Slicers. I grew the first two last couple of years and didn't miss any, now going to go for the white slicers as well. Green ones are just too sneaky.
It’s easy to miss them.😊 only takes a handful of days to get huge.
Oh my gosh... I had no idea! I always ripened on the vine and got mad when the plant died off so quickly. Thank you so much for this tip!!!
You learn something new every day. Been growing my own veg for over 40 years & I never knew that.
Tho I have never let my cucumbers get too large
This is so helpful, my parents had a garden but they never taught me. Thanks for being a teacher!
You're welcome!
..same. Parents had gardens when I was young, but then quit doing it I guess because food became cheap and it's a lot of work. So I never really learned anything from them about gardening. The funny thing is, they've started gardening again late in life, and now so have I, but we're learning together because they forgot most of what they knew.
Damn... :/ that's just really sad. Heck, I've really gotten into gardening and all sorts of other horticulture and I'm always happy to share what knowledge I've picked up with anyone and everyone that's curious. Can't imagine a parent not sharing their knowledge with their own child.
I was always working in the garden with my Dad. It is much work.
You are a incredibly knowledgeable gardener. I learn so much from you, I can’t even begin to describe how much confidence Ihave developed in gardening just watching your videos. You are doing great community service. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
That's outstanding! That's why I do this - I want as many people to grow food, no matter how big or how small. Hearing that makes it all worth it!
Agree
I thought my cucumbers were turning yellow BEFORE they turned green😮😊
🤣🤣🤣
I saw your video last year and followed your info. I was amazed how well they produced! I canned tons of pickles and shared fresh cucumbers with friends. Shared your video with all of my gardening friends!! Thank you so much!
This is so good to know. I'm going to be growing cucumbers for the first time this year and I definitely want to do it correctly. Thank you.
Thank you!!!! I have been trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong and you are the only person to finally give me an answer! This makes so much sense! This information will help me to NOT make this mistake again. You are awesome!
Wow, I never would have even considered this. What a useful video! I'll be sure to check out your other videos, I'm starting my first vegetable garden this spring and don't want to put in all this effort just for my plants to die without a good harvest!
This happened to us this year😢 Last year, we had a great harvest throughout the summer😅. We were wondering why and now we know! Thank you very much!
Excellent advice, as always. I’m glad I watched this before planting my seeds!
Thank you for this video. I’m growing cucumbers for the first time this year! I know you just saved me from this error!
Thanks for this! Really helpful as it exactly shows me what my mistakes were this year.
This makes so much sense!! Thank you!! I'm looking forward to our harvests this season!!
This makes perfect sense. And, you answered my questions. For instance reusing the soil, succession planting, humidity. I appreciate your channel.
Interesting. I found an overripe cucumber on one of my plants that was just about orange. I took it off and the plant continued growing and is still healthy and produces like crazy.
Was looking for someone with an alternative experience. Which type of cucumber are you growing and in what zone?
@@firstorlast340 I'm in Zone 5b. I have had that experience with multiple varieties. Right now I am growing Wisconsin SMR. And ironically I just found another huge yellow cuke that I missed. And the plant is still healthy and loaded with baby cukes.
@@littletechgirl2 Very cool. Thanks for the info.
That is because this video is wrong. Beware. There is a ton of bad gardening info online.
@@compostfanatic Easy, now. You might be being a bit harsh. It could be a combination of what he says AND the harshness of his environment.
That said, I've never had that issue and my cuc's last quite a lot longer and grow so lush that I frequently miss "ripe" cucumbers. This over a long period of years and many different varieties. But I'm in 8b.
Edit: Something strange, here. I just checked hardiness zones and it looks like he's in 8a. Wonder what he's using for his growth medium...? Or what his water is like. One big difference is that I plant my cucumbers close together, allowing them to fully shade their roots. It could be that simple.
Everything needs a purpose❤ This was extremely well-explained. Thank you. Inspiring.
I have never heard this before. As a beginner Gardener I am very thankful to have come across this information. I feel like I can use this information for other plants as well. Thank you again 💚🙏💚
I’m in Sampson county. Nice to see another eastern NC gardener here on YT. Really helps since we’re the same planting zone.
Thank you for this video! I was wondering what happened to my cucumbers this year and I think you just told me!
Well, you just solved a mystery for me-I am in the process of moving to a new homestead. Decided to let some of my plants-ones I knew I could not move, produce the full grown fruit-wanted the seeds. That's what happened with my Cukes. One day I see it dying, water and tend and now...all deadish. I let the Cukes go yellow for the seeds so, answers that mystery but it is fine-can't take the plants with me anyway.
Thank you for being quick & to the point! 😊
Im so glad you talked about succession planting...i dont know why but didnt even think of that...probably cause im new to gardening...good info to know! Thanks so much!
I live in Northern Indiana. I planted 3 separate plants and so far 2 out 3 are still producing. I think one of them I missed one and it's now done. Great advice. Thanks!
This is a great video!
It’s to the point, and covered every question I had, regarding cucumber harvesting, especially at this time of year.
Thanks, Millennial Gardner! 🥒 👍
WOW ! I have not heard this info on any other channel ! Thank you so much ! Explains why my cucumbers always died and never produced much. Thanks again !!
Wow! I have a horrible time with my cucumber plants and now I know why. Thank you so very much for your wisdom. There is hope for me yet.😊
I have some decent sized ones now thats producing nicely. Here soon, i am gonna start more seeds to be planted out in a month about and ill still have around 3.5 months until my first frost where im at. Great info, thanks so much for the video!
Another great video. You have just explained what happened to 3 of my cucumber plants. I had no idea and this is the first summer I’ve grown cucumbers and have been so disappointed. Now I know 👍. Thanks
You’re welcome! Start some new transplants. Cucumbers go from seed to fruit in 6 weeks, so don’t give up. It isn’t too late to have a good season 😊
Me too. The few cucumbers I have gotten have yellowed. I thought perhaps the plant roots were receiving to much water. Guess I need to pick after a day or two after they get bigger than a golf ball 🤔 growing pickling cucumbers so they aren't getting very big
I just heard of this in another video a few minutes ago. Thanks for showing it in practice!
This is mind blowing and so simple. I've gotta go harvest my cucs! Thank you.☺️
Great video! Never realized this before. I also like how you just get a couple plants going at a time rather than over planting more than you need. Thanks, central IN.
Cucumber plants have two speeds: too many and none! I find staggering plantings fix that problem. Too many folks plant everything in April and then stop, and many plants don't go the distance. Spacing out your transplants not only lead to longer harvests, but you don't get overwhelming harvests in the beginning.
@@TheMillennialGardener honestly, that's me.... I never considered planting more in July, but will since my first possible frost in St Louis is October 16. I'm ready for round 2!! 😊 I just never was introduced to the idea of second plantings!!
@@denisebayer8748 removing sealed covers on jars
I live in Charlotte and my cucumber plants are still going, too. This has been strange growing season as mine are usually dead by now. The other strange thing this year is that the cucumber plants have been blooming like crazy but I've not gotten that much fruit from them. For as much as they have been blooming, I usually have a ton of cucumbers. So much so that I'm usually giving a bunch away.
Hi Mavis. I'm in Charlotte too. Might I suggest you give the Asian veggie variations a go. I go to Gmart and get their cucumber and squash seedlings. They are prolific producers and highly disease and pest tolerant 😁
When males open, give their polen to females. This will increase the production.
Cucumbers need to be pollinated by bees. If it's too rainy, the bees might not be out and about. You have to pollinate them manually!
Oh wow I wondered why my cucumber plants were dying so fast! Excellent information! You didn’t drag the answer and explained it so well and great examples! You just got me to hooked on your channel! I’m subscribed!
I find your channel so interesting and compelling. You're my new favorite gardening channel.
Awesome video man. Thanks for the knowledge. My cucumber plant is just starting to flower and now i know exactly what to do to keep it going strong 👌
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Great video and so to the point, I have made the same mistake every year. Yellow cucumber taste awful , but keep in mind that if you want seeds then leave some cucumbers to mature so you have new seeds for the next season.
I have a burpless cucumber plant. I have one that is about 6 inches long and the bottom is a little white. Does it need to be picked now?
In-depth analysis. Very educational ❤
Cucumber psychology, I love it! I made this mistake last year, now I know what it was. Thanks for another great video
Great info for a new gardener! We love pickles at my house so this will definitely help with a large harvest. Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Wow!! I thought I was just lousy at growing cucumbers gif very long!😂
Good to know, I’m definitely going to heed this advice and also secession plant ! My main garden is out back on west side… going to try some on east side too and see how they turn out.
I never thought of this, but it makes the most perfect sense! Thank you so much! I appreciate your time, effort, & videos! Many blessings!
First time on your channel and first time growing cucumbers. This was indeed helpful. Thank you
Excellent advice. BTW the white spots/dried up dead spots on the leaves of those first two cucumbers looks like damage from thrips. Examine the underside of the leaf and you will be able to see them hiding along the leaf veins.
You provide such helpful content on your channel!
Does this apply to other veggies too or just to cucumbers?
This explains SO much last year. Thank you!
Thanks for your great advice-I’m definitely going to follow it!!!
Spiraling into a cucumber induced existential crisis
Interesting, never heard this explanation before. For years I have always succession planted cukes from seedlings from Mid May through July. Do the same with summer squash and zucchini. We tend to pick everything on the smaller side and always assumed that the plants had completed their cycle after about 12 weeks. The second and third plantings are more productive than the previous ones when they mature and the previous are winding down. Will have to experiment with your theory next season.
Did you experiment his theory? What are the results?
I've had zucchini grow until the end of season many times., fruiting away although it slows down as it gets colder. Successive fertilizing keeping them picked, etc. i do think that this video is somewhat accurate but i think the creator has more of a problem with cucumber die off than just ripen fruit, but, who can be sure?
Wow, great info! I had no idea..looking forward to watching my cucumber plant grow that l purchased last weekend. Also just watched your video on dragon flies. Gave the thumbs up and subscribed. Perth Western Australia 😊
Perfect timing. I grew cucumbers for the first time last year. Glad I saw this before my plants started producing this year. Hopefully, I will make less mistakes this time.
Your channel along with Epic Gardening and Lazy Dog Farm have really been a great asset to my small gardening efforts (primarily hot peps). Thanks!
You're welcome! Travis's channel is great for me, too, since we have virtually identical climates.
@@TheMillennialGardener I'm in 9b on east central coast of FL. When August hits, I'm done! Thanks for the response👍
Love lazy dog farm too!
Well done, lad. I started trying a few things with other plants to increase yield. With peppers, I would trim after the second nodes to increase branching, and flowers. Then, I would knock off the first round of buds when they appear. Then it's a matter of timing, and not allowing any color change while the fruit is still on the plant to extend viability later in the season. Nice video!
This is the first video I saw of yours and now I’m about to binge. Thank you!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I am wondering since beggining gardening why I have such bad luck with cucumbers. Now I know 😃! I whatched a lot of videos and no one mentioned this mistake, that I was clearly making. Thanks a lot 🎉
Great video I would've never thought about that but is true with all plants when they think the job is done and go to seed. I will be more vigilant. Thank you again. I'm putting in succession plants this weekend😊
Outstanding! One of my goals is to change mindsets on planting schedules. Instead of planting your entire garden right away in the spring, space them out. You'll get more consistent harvests longer instead of the boom-and-bust cycles most gardeners get.
Great video and I look forward to trying these tips this year, I live in the piedmont of NC myself. I had one question unrelated to the cucumbers, is that black plastic you have down around your beds or black rubber to walk on and keep the weeds and grass down? I have heard from others that using black plastic will attract snakes to get in and under the walkways. Any thoughts? Thanks for all your videos!
i live in vegas and i randomly got a cucumber growing out of the compost and now its like huge
Wow. That was really useful information. And here I was thinking that I was just really bad at growing cucumbers. I had no idea that they just naturally die so quickly.
The variety I grew this year were yellow. What you are describing happened to me, but I didn't know when they were done growing. So frustrating.
Sounds great, thanks MG! We just planted a bunch more cucumber seeds today and some blacktail mountain watermelon. We shouldn’t get a frost till end of October so we should be good and I’ll keep this in mind!
Wow, that explains a lot about my cucumber plants last year. Who knew? Thanks for the info!
Thank you! Needless to say, I was doing it wrong...Such good advice, I have hopes for this year.....All the best to you!
Well, this explains the problems I've always had with cucumbers! Thank you!
Thank you for this information. I didn’t know, now I do
You’re welcome! I’m happy it was helpful!
Wow your theory make sense! Thanks for those tips.. I planted cucumbers this year for the first time and I will definitely try your tips.
I just discovered your channel and I love it! I'm learning so much - thank you!
Thank you! Timely video as I just took out my dying cucumber plant & discovered a fully ripe cucumber that I missed. I had wondered why the plant was dying (as compared to last year's planting) and your video explained it.
You can take out the seeds from the fully ripe cucumbers and dry them out and replant them next year.
50 years of gardening, never knew this...amazing!!!
I'm glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Super helpful! Makes total sense and I love having the why with the techniques
Thanks for the training. Will definitely follow your advice
I had mine yellow on me as well which was hidden under a huge leaf. Great info! TFS 😊
That'll do it. It's inevitable - we all will eventually miss a cucumber. However, that's why it's always good to have another set of transplants and a younger crop growing.
@@TheMillennialGardener and I did !! 😊
I couldn't understand why two of plants died back, now I know. Thank you for the informative video.
You're welcome!
I feel so bad for my cucumber plants now! However, this video explains a lot. I will definitely be more prudent in checking my plants this year!
