Pruning and training of greenhouse cucumber provide condition for maximum production with maintaining
quality by maintenance and continue of cropping. This study was carried out in order to investigated effect of
different training shapes and pruning types and their interactions on yield and shrub length of greenhouse
cucumber as a factorial experiment in completely randomized design with two factors including pruning and
training in three replications. Four training shapes (simple, canopy, v shape cordon and vertical cordon) and four
pruning types (no pruning, without lateral branch, one fruit on lateral branch and two fruit on lateral branch)
were investigated. Results showed that pruning and training and their interactions had a significant effect on
yield and shrub length. Most the yield was obtained in v shape cordon training and one fruit on lateral branch
that except canopy training without pruning treatment had significant difference compared to other treatments.
Most shrub length obtained in v shape cordon training and in no lateral branch pruning. According to the results,
use the suit training and pruning methods can increase the yield of the cucumber.
