    Is it okay to remove some of this please as it is shutting out all light from the cucumbers.

    Not sure what you mean Sheal? Do you mean the foliage is blocking out light to the developing fruit? If so I wouldn't worry about that, they don't need light falling on the fruit to develop.

    It sounds like you cucumbers are doing really well :dbgrtmb:

    Thanks John. :dbgrtmb: They're not doing bad, although there is some leaf damage due to this 'orrible weather. I'll take some pictures at the weekend. :)
