  • Congrats on 1 million subs! Who would’ve thought that so many years ago, the simple act of removing a chunk of lawn and planting some food in its place would turn into this? You’re truly living the dream, James! 👏
  • @chrisg3093
    This video is perfect timing for me first time growing cucumbers
  • @michellep1592
    I don't usually comment, but I've been watching you for a long time and I appreciate your knowledge always something to learn! Your passion with your channel is amazing! Thank you!

    Congratulations to you and Tuck for reaching 1M subscribers! It is very well-deserved! I've waited eagerly every week for your videos (and to see Tuck!) for the past several years now. Your enthusiasm is so infectious, and you and The Boss have inspired so many people to grow their own food, myself included.
  • My row of cucumbers are healthy, green, getting bushy and I was wondering why they weren't growing upward as easily as my pole beans. Now I know. Thank you for the excellent tips! UPDATE JULY 27, 2022: Cucumbers are gowing like crazy - I'm getting loads of cucumbers (Muncher, 9"). So happy!
  • @dustinallman
    I have watched close to 100% of your videos for the past 3+ years. I learn something in all of them. But I really liked the approach you took on this video. It was still fun and enjoyable to watch but it was PACKED full of info. Like, "Here's a tip, boom, here's another, boom, boom, boom, also boom, and this too. I would love to see more videos like this!

    How didn’t I know this? I do the same exact thing on my tomatoes. Just totally didn’t realize it. Thanks James! Always enjoy your happiness in the garden.
  • This is so weird. I was looking this up today. I knew I needed to prune my cuc's but wasn't sure what exactly to do. Divine providence! Thanks!
  • @ronj5714
    Look at your background- my dream! I remember years ago when you cleaned out your back yard & began this journey. So inspiring. I just got a little garden down here in central Florida & am trying to get hubby on board. Lol. Never get tired of your energy at your intro- keep it up James!! Tuck got a haircut. ❤
  • @tanelions1993
    Great video. First one I've seen about pruning suckers and lower leaves. Now I know what my cucumbers currently need.. Thank you!
  • @richard6048
    I truly RESPECT the way YOU explain - and at thd same time demonstrating the practical to us.. Good one.. I am a small Farmer in 🇯🇲 ..
  • @imsodone4309
    Tuck is so cute❤❤❤. I’ve grown cucumbers vertically before, but I never knew about pruning. I didn’t know about the big overripe cucumbers causing the plant to quit producing too. Thank you so much for this video.
  • Wow last year was my 1st year growing cucumbers and I did pretty well, but after looking at your channel ...imma bout to be the MVP of cucumbers ...Thank you....I love your doggie
  • @jackiek4159

  • You’re the man dude. Zone 6B here in PA. You’ve taught me a lot. Thank you.
  • @teddyritter7853
    Incredible information. You have corrected like three mistakes I have been making and was still successful. Can't wait for this!
  • I've never grown cucumbers before until now and didn't know they have suckers like tomatoes that need to be clipped. Thank you for the info. Glad to know a broken tendril doesn't mean disaster. Congrats on 1M subscribers. You deserve it! Smile and have a blessed day!
  • Thanks for your channel. It has introduced me to continuous gardening and hope for my plants.
