Trying cucumbers in a container indoors
I thought that it would be fun to try growing cucumbers in a container indoors and fool Mother Nature. So far it is looking good.

The temperature averages in the mid seventies F, and the humidity in the mid forties.

Thanks, and they are looking better everyday. I am removing the male flowers and tendrils and some lateral shoots already. I also thought my four year old granddaughter Ava would also enjoy growing a tomato plant indoors. I am going to have to give some serious thought to placing a bamboo cage around the plant soon. It is an indeterminate variety called Balcony Hybrid and should have six or seven ounce fruit. There are already several trusses with flowers.

The cucumber plants are producing female flowers. As the plants are parthenocarpic and do not need pollination it looks like I will soon have fruit.
