So many cucombers!
These were really fun to grow! We grew two plants and had enough cucumbers for fresh eating in salads and the kids like eating them whole. We also had leftovers for pickling, and they made great pickles. They do have small spikes on them that you have to wash off, but they are really fun to grow!
