Perfect for peas or any vining plant, this five-foot-tall trellis can also be customized to the height you need. For slightly sturdier, thicker trellis, as seen here, you can use 2 in. x 2 in. boards.
So a net 1.5 in height will provide a trellis or espalier between 1.80 and 1.90 m (so the post sizes should be around 2.2 and 2.5 m), and this would be the ideal support system measurement for most cucumber open field varieties. The ideal size for square mesh is approx. 25x25 cm.
Marah macrocarpa has the most pubescent shoots, stems, and leaves of all the Marah species native to California - this being consistent with its range having the most xeric climate. Vines appear in late winter in response to increased rainfall, and can climb or scramble to a length of 6 metres (20 ft).

Vines can grow in full-sun to partially shaded conditions. In mild areas where year-round moisture is available, vines can be perennial . In the Mediterranean climate areas of California, manroot emerges soon after winter rains begin, grows until late spring, and dies back completely in the heat and dryness of summer.
The cucumber (Cucumis sativus) is a widely-cultivated creeping vine plant in the family Cucurbitaceae that bears cylindrical to spherical fruits, which are used as culinary vegetables. [1] Considered an annual plant, [ 2 ] there are three main types of cucumber—slicing, pickling , and seedless —within which several cultivars have been created.
