Volvos cuke has come good!!

Was doing I bit of rearanging of the patch the other day, when I looked at Peters cuke and thought, well it may as well go, as it has done nothing. I bent down to heave it out of the ground when I noticed two nice cukes about 6 inches long hanging off it. Further detective work came up with two more. So, Peter, you could have told me it was a slow motion cuke.

Mantis *looking forward to actually eating one*

Good news on the cukes. I had some beauties but now they are shrivelling at pickled cuke size. Not sure why. Ideas, anyone? ):grub.

I have had loads of cucumbers this year. I alway put in the lebaneses ones. I have made a few preserves out of them too. Jan
