cucumbers


cucumbers are still continuing to crop but the Sweet Crunch which are supposed to be a small fruiting variety are as large as the Marketmores. best crops, though rather weird, have come from the Crystal Lemon plant. at their largest they grow to the size of an apple but easily develop tough skin and a lot of seeds. the very oddly shaped one at the bottom of the picture is a Marketmore grown outside in the bean row - this is the only fruit from the plant and not really fit to eat.
