My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Best cucumber for containers?

15 years ago

I'm asking for opinions for a good cuke to grow outside in containers in zone 6 TN. I'm thinking bush types with short vines, but maybe gynoecious type would be better producer overall and might be worth tying up. What do you think?
