Hi Jessica, I like your trellis, but sorry I don't have a diagnosis. It sounds that the plant was producing delicious cucumbers for a while, right? I, too, was very frustrated with mine because they always produced well but never long enough. Through help from this forum I adapted some changes this year and so far I've been getting great cucumbers everyday since mid May. To extend the harvest I made the following changes: 1. Never use up all garden space at the first spring planting. I reserved some space for successive planting. 2. Pick cucumbers when they are young and pick daily so the plant doesn't "age" as fast. Aged plants are more vulnerable to diseases. 3. Repeat planting about every 4 weeks. My second planting is at it's peak right now, and the third planting is almost ready to fruit. I've found that 3 plants at each planting is more than enough to supply for a small family. We're blessed with a long season in southern California; maybe that's why the above changes worked well. I hope you'll continue to get delicious cucumbers.

tuxedo -- Lemon thyme is one of those herbs that doesn't always produce true from seed -- ie, it's possible to grow lemon thyme from seed, but its not at all uncommon for the seedlings to show a great deal of variation from the original plant. Most lemon thyme is propagated vegetatively -- usually by root division.

Because the movies are protected by copyright, you might have more luck with a commercial site that sells Monty Python products (they'll have the necessary permissions). That is probably the only way to get a nice quality image. You can purchase special paper that will print iron-on transfers from an ink jet printer, but they won't be as sharp as what you'd get from a commerical printer (and that doesn't get around the copyright issue).

I'm in love with this rug and can't find it anywhere. Please help! Thanks!
