I love it when some one succeeds in growing some thing for the first time.

Well done Betula.

Well it's your own fault, concentrating on your exams and forsaking your plants ;)

Get a little gem lettuce
Then a gardeners delight
A cucumber to die for
you will not want for tonight.

There you go, the first lines of a very sad ballad, or was it a very bad salad ;D

Was the cucumber grown in a greenhouse and which variety was it?

I lost my real greenhouse to the wind but I have a leaning sort of greenhouse attached to the side of my shed.You cant actually stand in it but I had a sort of wooden slatted bookcase shelf in it to start off.Then when I repotted I took the shelves out and stood the cucumbers on the floor.Very Heath Robinson. :)

Not sure to variety,as lost packet but it may be Tasty King,don't hold me to it. :)
