For at least the last ten years or so I've grown Snow's Fancy Pickling and it's been a cucumber machine for me. We've had cooler, wetter summers the last couple of years and I did have some mildew on them, but they still kept producing. I've made bread and butters and dills with them, as well. I don't do anything special in the garden. Just very consistent with watering and I use Garden Tone on them. Straw mulch helps keep the moisture in so they don't get bitter. Good luck!
