Hello all.

I started come cucumber in a heated propagator. Yesterday at 10.00 am there was nothing showing. Returned today at 1.00 pm and they are leggy and about 3" high. Is there anything I can do or will they survive as is?

Regards

Pot them on into 6 inch pots,bury the stem to within 1/2 inch of the bottom leaves.they should be ok

Thanks dl933.

I was a bit worried that if I did this they might rot at the necks which I believe cucumbers are prone to.

In that case bottom water by standing them in water for a short time
