Abstract
Abstract Marketable yield increase of 100% resulted from trellising fresh market cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L.) over a 3-year period. Fruit were a more uniform, dark green color and graded more Fancy and fewer Culls. Fungicidal control of scab (causal agents Cladosporium cucumerinum Ell. & Arth.) was improved by trellising and losses to soil rot (causal agentsRhizoctonia solani Kuhn and Pythium spp.) were eliminated. Suggested reasons for improved yield and quality from trellising include less damage to vines, greater photosynthetic efficiency, improved pest control, and more efficient harvesting.
