The pole beans are starting to shoot up... time to get the string trellis in place. Don't want those long vines to get all tangled up on the ground. While I'm at it, why not create a trellising system for the cucumbers, too? Providing vertical support for the vines will allow the fruit to hang down, making for easy picking of nicely formed cukes.
Speaking of support, the pepper plants could use some. I use "tomato cages" to keep pepper plants upright and to support the heavy developing fruit. Hmmm ... the eggplants would benefit from such support, too. Luckily, I have plenty of cages to go around!
