I was pleasantly surprised to see that 3 of the 16 Picolino Hyb seeds had popped up in 5 days, beating out most of the other cucumbers I started in cells - Salt and Pepper had one seedling up.
Now to see if they are anything like the F1. It's certainly possible that my seed cucumber was also pollinated by other cukes about 25 ft away, so this will be a fun grow out with no fixed expectations. But I'm hoping for a short and early.
