Talking Cuccumber Question!

Hello Everyone

I've got some all female cuccmber plants which have alot of what look like small cuccumbers with yellow flowers on the end!

Do i need to do anyting with these or just leave them to grow?

I'm feeding them well now the cuccumbers have started to form.

Hope to hear from someone.

Regards

Paul

Paul, congratulations on the birth of your cucumbers. Don`t overfeed, once a week should be ample. Keep the soil moist but not wet, and do not water near the stem. What variety are they?

Hi David

Thanks for the reply. I dpon't know what variety they are, but hop to find out by reading the label tomorrow! Watering near the stem? Do you mean water near the edge of the pot? or don't get the stem wet?

The stems of my plants look to be sending roots out, and one of my plants has a mould on it!

More info to follow!!

Cheers David

Regards

Paul

Thanks. They are Femspot I think. (label in the pot)

I'm going to feed them a manure solution once a week.
