@catmint20906, your cucumber plant got huge!
@newyorkrita, I think @catmint20906 was advised to hand pollinate if her cucumber plant turned out to be gynoecious (all female flowers), instead of the type that produces both male and female flowers (monoecious).
@ssgardener--nice thought but no!
Good to see you here, SSG! Hope all of your veggies are growing well! Did you plant a variety this year?
JB I have one watermelon plant growing and it's sprawling to a nice size now--but no signs of any fruit yet! I can totally understand with all the work involved on a farm--we always wish there was time for everything, but somehow there never is! So nice that you and your neighbor are able to trade like that.
Rita, your neighbors sound very lucky!
