My first time growing Armenian cucumbers has been wonderful! They have no tough skin; have a cute daisy edge when sliced for dipping; stay crispier than cucumbers when pickled; grow like kudzu; and reproduce like bunnies!!! I have had no pest problems here in northwest Ohio, my only problem has been building the trellis bigger, bigger, and bigger as they explode. What fun!!!

Over here in the UK, I have done this before. As our season is not that long, I've planted some cuttings at the end of the season (No later than Sept) and managed to keep the strongest ones going on a window sill over the winter. I've had to watch out for damping off and fungus and have lost some to this problem. When they got leggy, I kept trimming them back. Come late Feb or March, I re-potted and found they had a great head start on the seed sown plants. They also started to fruit especially early ! A great bonus.

I am another person here who has been gardening my whole life and did not think to do this. You posted this video at a very good time! We had a volunteer tomato plant come up in the garden and I just let it grow. The plant was most likely a cross between a chocolate cherry and an heirloom beefsteak that I received last year from a gentleman whose family had been passing down the seeds for three generations. It produces fruit about double the size of a cherry tomato, dark burgundy brown in color and we were amazed to find that they taste like a rich wine. Since it is a hybrid, it is not likely to come true to seed, but with your instructions, I now have four clones started that I will grow over the winter in a grow tent... able to enjoy them all winter and set out new clones in the spring. Not as easy as saving seed, but the glorious taste of this tomato is worth the extra effort! Thank you!

I have grown the Armenian variety cucumber and I prefer them to the conventional ones as well. Less bitter and better crunch factor. We like them thinly sliced and marinated with red onion and habanero in a white sugar and rice wine vinegar dressing. We like the thin-skinned Asian ones also. “Tasty Jade”, “Katrina” and “Diva” (Johnny’s Selected Seeds) are all excellent and can be field-grown. Trellising helps to keep them straight and improves yields. I never considered propagating tomatoes this way but I’m for sure going to try it. Thanks for the tips and techniques on this one.

As you said, Brian, the heat stopped the tomato blooms, but the plants grew too large in my tiny greenhouse. So I'm trying cutting back the indeterminate ones to the lowest branch where there is a shoot started. Seeing if I can get them to finish the season still fruiting with such a good root in place. I may do the same with the determinate ones in time, but for now, they are still fruiting. At 87 yrs old, I see no need to preserve the lineage of the old days 'mators. I never found any to compare taste-wise with Better Boy and Celebrity hybrids, anyway. I cook a 20+ lb turkey every year and cut it all up into sandwich size for the freezer. Nothing better or easier to fix for months of lunches. Turkey, 'mator, mayo, on sourdough toast with black coffee. Who could ask for more?

My husband first learned about Armenian cucumbers from some elderly Armenian ladies, family friends. We have grown them ever since. They are more of a desert kind of plant as the climate in Armenia is quite dry. So they don’t need as much water and babying that our regular cucumbers need. The bugs don’t seem to mess with them as much. The fruit is burp less and has very little seed. As you know, the taste is Devine and almost never bitter. And they’re HUGE, and that doesn’t matter either as far as the taste goes. I grow it in a 5 gallon pail on my south western Kentucky deck ( it faces the north) . You will not regret growing Armenian cucumbers!

Hi, I’ve several tomatoes in grow bags doing reasonably well but I set mine up with a plastic liner for the bottom 2-3 inches, some 4 inch diameter perforated pipe ( Home Depot) then a layer of weed block on top of it. The idea is to let only about 20% of the soil go down to the bottom of the bag to act as a wick. I used a piece of drinking water grade pipe to add water to the bottom of the bag (reservoir area). It wasn’t practical for me to set up piping for automated watering so I went this route. I still have to watch the soil daily when it’s over 90 but other than that, I usually only have to check it every 2 or 3 days, when it’s in the 60-70’s about once a week or so.
