Cross Country Cucumbers
http://www.durgan.org/2015/July%2020...ucumbers/HTML/ 8 July 2015 Cross Country Cucumbers
Cucumbers have stated to produce. Cross country is excellent for juicing and slicing, and pickling. The hybrid is most prolific.The female flower emerges with a small cuke attached and the male without. It is possible to pollinate with a small paint brush. If the female is not pollinated then the cuke dies and falls off. With the shortage of bees in my garden I contemplated hand pollination, but apparently not necessary now, since fruit is forming. |
