Cucumbers for this season
I have Burpee pickler growing now, tendrils just starting to form. In the last two days I have sown; Yellow Submarine, Cool Breeze and Poona Kheera. What are you guys growing as far as cukes this spring?8-)

Got 30 Bostons under the lights for planting, and the lemon's will get started soon.

This year I'll grow Boston Pickling, Lemon and Poona Kheera. I may talk myself into revisiting Boothby's Blonde.
New this year (if the seeds arrive) is Jaune Dickfleischige. |
I am growing tendergreen, national pickling, and muncher
|
I'll be growing White Stallion cuke (New Dimension Seeds) and Poona Kheera. Last year I enjoyed growing Sikkim, and I highly recommend it for taste and novelty!

Here is my 2009 plan:
Cucumbers: ========== General Lee Korean Mexican Sour Gherkin Melothria trilobata Poona Kheera Sikkim Suhyo Long Slicing Super Zagross Middle Eastern Slicing Cucumber Dean |
Dean, where did you get your Sikkim seeds? Baker Creek is sold out.

I was able to get some in a trade this fall. I plan on growing them out and offering them next year in the SSE yearbook. Dean |
I grew this last year and had the most fun sharing the experience. Next time I'll save some seeds!

Boothby Blonde
Poona Kheera Lemon Diva Beth Alpha |
Poona Kheera mentioned in all but 2 grow lists so far, it is a keeper for sure. I am however curious about this Sikkim variety
|
I have just two:
Lemon Greek They germinated quickly. This is my second try at growing them but last summer wasn't warm at all so I am hoping for all my plants that this summer will be great. Sue |
Ate my first cuke of the year this morning, Burpee Pickler, not bad at all.
|
Duane, you slime! That's no fair!!! (Ha!)
|
gardenfrog is right, my cucs are still just little bitty things, they won't be ready for a "spell." :wait: It's a big cruel world out there. I panic every time you and feldon30 tell us about your maters and stuff, then some poor person up north pops in to say hello and I feel all better again.
