Cucumber plants have no flowers

[Noah]

i have 4 cucumber plants that i started from seed. They are at least 4 ft tall and I am trek lackluster my them up. Even though it is growing I have yet to have any flowers on it. It is a cucumber straight 8 I think it’s called. Any suggestions?

This might be useful. Common sense would say feed the plant with feed with high potash such as tomorite to encourage flowering. (Look for NPK - the P number should be a bit higher than the others) And after that, when they have flowers, you need to pollinate the flowers by hand if they are grown in green house.

To see the difference between the sexes of flowers, please see

Thank you for the vid. I don’t have any flowers at all.

You say the plant is 4 ft. tall. How OLD is the plant, what kind and how much fertilizer was used. Are there any yellow leaves and if so where on the plant are they?
