Q.. I Have Planted 2 Hills Of 4 Cucumber Plants. Do I Need To Remove 1 Plant From Each Hill?

I have taken over the vegetable garden as my husband no longer wants to do it. However, he has several suggestions but doesn’t know where he learned them or why I have to do them.

Technically, you can space them a, mere, 2 or 3 inches apart! As long as they have the run of about 3 feet, then you can crowd them and force them down the hill.

Unless they are crowding each other, then it will not be necessary.
