Yes, that is the ultimato on the cucumber plants, it was the perfect size for the container I've got them in. Supplemented it with some twine for additional support between the plastic beam things.

Some more updates, everything has now set fruit except the Better Bush plant, it has flowers and should set fruit soon. Pink Grapefruit just set fruit today. Here's some closeups of some of the bigger tomatoes on most of the plants. Pics are of Red Zebra, Stupice, Japanese Black Trifele and Italian Roma closeup, then snapped a pic of a welcome visitor to the garden and then my Spacemaster Cucumbers and Sun Gold plant. Last picture is of 5 of my 7 pepper plants, two Early Jalapeno's, one Serrano, a Poblano and California Wonder. The peppers are just starting to flower.

The vegetables look great. With this hot weather, it won't be long before you have a ripe tomato.

Came back from a weekend trip and the Better Bush now has fruit as well. Lost about a dozen Romas to BER, but hopefully that clears up soon. Harvested my first tomatoes today, a couple Sun Golds along with some giant cucumbers and a couple bunching onions. The Sun Golds taste wonderful. They didn't make it very long after taking that picture.

Harvested the first of the non-cherry tomatoes today. Two romas and one Stupice. Got another one on the Stupice plant that is blushing now too! So excited to have fresh tomatoes now. I think I'll be making up a nice grilled cheese and tomato sandwich for lunch today.
Here's what I harvested from the garden this morning:  2 Spacemaster Cucumbers, 1 Early Jalapeno, 2 Serranos, a handful of Sun Golds, plus the Roma and Stupice tomatoes. The stupice weiged in at 1.7oz, the Romas at 1.5 and 1.2oz.

Nice harvest! Enjoy the sandwich. It is good to see your plants are surviving this heat wave we have had the past couple weeks.

Is that the ULTOMATO staking system you're using for your cucumbers? I have a bunch of those and love them for my tomatoes - just wish they were taller!
