Best cucumber

This has to be the best cuke I have ever grown. I usually end up with cukes looking more like the lower one in the picture - except for when I grow Armenian which are lovely (but are a little behind this year). This year I have had several long smooth skinned ones like the top one. They are delicious with very small seeds and not at all bitter. Now, if I can just remember what kind they were.

Are they the ones from Sunshine Farms? I grew some of thier cukes and it seems to me they are like that... I forget the name, though...

WOW - we even frequent the same Sd message boards! I found you on the "earth friendly food choices" message board in the "garden" section of the "village" on Sd. How complicated does it get ;) Isn't that an awesome source of information?? I feel so lucky!

(oh, and "hi" by the way, nice cukes ;)

Yes, Andrea, they are those ones. I think. ;-) I'm sure that was where I planted those ones. I have the seed pack somewhere so I will double check. Hope your garden is doing well.
