Last year I was unable to get any cucumbers to grow. So this year I planted early, planning to reseed. And reseed again.
I planted 6.
I now have 6 cucumber plants taking over my little 2x2 space under lights. They are climbing up the shelf uprights, the okra plants and I think they are making plans to invade the few tomatoes that have survived (most of them Green Grape cherry who seem a little belligerent themselves.) When all my other starts have been burned to a crisp, or dried up to a husk from me forgetting water, these have thrived. Even pollinating with only the help of a little desk fan.
Not to count my pickles before they are harvested, but I better find a good recipe for crispy canned dills. Possibly by next week.
