I just pulled my April sown cucumbers and planted another round. I hope they do well in the heat. I've had a lot of problems with pillbugs eating seedlings at this time of year (squash, beans, etc) but I put down Sluggo Plus and that really seems to be helping. I've done better with mildew resistant varieties. They seem to last about a month longer in the garden. I've been growing Sumter the last few years. I don't have time to make pickles this summer so I just planted Tendergreen Burpless. I hope they're crunchy with small seeds.
