Hi John Trellis, yes. Train, no.
John Speese Nov 4, 2019:
But you can trellis cucumbers, even though they are annual. I worked in commercial vegetable production and the term trellising was often used in this context.
Ramey Rieger (X) Nov 4, 2019:
Hi Martina! Your own suggestion works fine, but you will find grown vertically also. You cannot train cucumbers, they are annuals.

agree Gordon Matthews : I think I like "trained" better, rather than "grown", in this case.

bush type

Cucumber plants grow in two forms: vining and bush. Vines scramble along the ground or clamber up trellises, while bush types, such as Burpless Bush Hybrid, form a more compact plant.
