here is my list so far:
bush pickle
boston pickle
chelsea prize
marketmore 76
national pickling
straight eight
Boothby's Blonde
White Wonder
the reason for so many varieties is i grow some for show and display.
I'm going to be doing White Wonder too, not sure if it's suppost to be greenhouse or outside thought. :-\
Carmen. Every year without fail. 12-15" long cucumbers and the plant ptoduces all summer long into late September.
Like last year I am growing La Diva and new this year crystal lemon and gherkin cucmber for pickling.
These are the ones i am growing this year......
Telegraph
Telepathy
Carmen F1.
Salmon and cucumber butties ..... ;)
I'm growing Crystal Apple, Boothby's Blond and White Wonder... may be a theme here. I've only had good results with them in a cold greenhouse Mortality, when grown outside I have had very few fruit... :-\
It,s tasty king again this year again for me
I'm growing Crystal lemon and green fingers this year both new to me and planning on growing in a cold greenhouse. I grew marketmore last year in the garden they did well but wanted to try something different ;D Harry is still mad on cucumber so he's going to be helping me with them this year. Someone recommended green fingers as lunch box size and harry is very excited at the idea. He does however think I'm mad because i told him the crystal lemon were round like apples :P
I looked for crystal lemon seeds at Wyvale's end of season sale last year, but they didn't have any....so..I'm doing my usual tried-and-true Marketmore & Burpless Tasty, but my new addition is a gherkin (haven't got the packet to hand so don't know its name). Hoping for great things from that....anyone grow it & had good results?
I have Crystal apple, Zeina (f1) and Boothby's Blonde (one of my HSL choices) and also some saved seeds from Lemon Cue. Why do I grow cucumbers I hate the things? I do have two daughters who are addicted, though one will not each anything odd, that includes anything prickly.
Some stock as Crystal Apple Hyacinth...
If you want a couple of my "whites"... any or all three just pm me...
I'm growing Vlaspik.
My neighbour brought me a packet of seeds from Barbados. I've grown them before and they were very nice. Not a long cuke, but more like a gherkin.
They do well outdoors.
[size=12pt][/size]I've never grown cucumber before but have acquired some free seeds called Marketmore and will be giving them a go this year.
It's a good outdoor cucumber; I'll be growing it myself.
