The cucumbers are now beginning to produce female flowers, and as the plants are parthocarpic it will not necessary to pollinate them.
This morning I found the Balcony Hybrid tomato plant beginning to lean. I guess I really should have provided support and pruned the plant sooner.
To support the plant I added bamboo sections around the main stem and reinforced them with wire ties. Additionally, I placed vine clips on the large fruit bearing branches and fastened them to the light rails with twine.
Some of the larger branches, those without flowers or fruit, were removed to lessen the burden on the supports.
To say that I am pleased with the performance of the six band flower series light by Pro LED Systems would be an understatement!
