My lemon cukes grow way bigger than that little thing. I've tried so many different trellis, lean to things to grow my lemon and Armenian cukes on. The one I thought was really going to do it was 3 ladder things my neighbor helped me build one yr. for the Armenians but they took off and were too delecate to bend them where they needed to go and and and basically the best one so far was the old box spring frame thing w/no springs in it, chained to the garage eves.

OK you wanted to see or had questions on Stock I have come to thinking stock is the best cut flower ever. I found some at my HEB I could not resist they are probably 12 to 15 inches tall awesomely full looking and best of all super strong Cinnamon and nutmeg smell. check them out too many cut flowers don't have a lot of smell they look good but no or little smell Stock dose both best trust me. before couldn't describe the smell these reminded me of it. also splurged on the designer race track vase just to keep it poor country boy at heart.

I wish I could talk about a 60,000-80,000 greenhouse as if it were pocket change :) Maybe one day I will have a beautiful greenhouse the great thing about believing in hope is that you can dream and it puts a smile on your face because you never know it just might happen.
