=Mark,

Thanks for the info.  Here's a crappy photo of my 2 plants: 
http://www.fototime.com/5735DFFE7A11C9E/standard.jpg My deck trellis is poor 
background.  Oh well....  Mike Benson brought some awesome cukes to OF last 
year and I'm growing several varieties this year trying to do as well as he 
did.  I love cukes!  Thus the strings in the background to support them 
until get to the top of the trellis.  Armenian Yard Long, Chelsea Prize and 
one from the German seed bank that although seeds were over 10 years old is 
kicking butt!

Planning to can some salsa tomorrow so the cilantro will get a haircut.

I just trim off the outer/upper sprigs.  If you don't trim them back fairly
often, they'll bolt and go to seed...
