In current cucumber cultivation, how to arrange the appropriate planting density and trellis configuration is of great significance for improving pollination effect and yield. This study collated the latest research on the relationship between cucumber planting space and flowering and fruiting, analyzed the impact of vertical trellis configuration at different densities on flower visibility, pollinating insect activity and fruiting conditions, and discussed how to balance leaf growth and fruit output through planting management to improve cucumber quality. This study hopes to provide practical suggestions for cucumber cultivation, helping farmers grow more and better cucumbers, and also protecting the ecological environment.
