Yellow cucumbers! We planted some old seeds (envelope said “Cucumbers 1999”) and they went to town growing and sending seeker vines everywhere at the free for all end of the garden! I harvested a bag full of these yellow beauties and they are just sweeter than honey. Juicy too!

I have never heard of, or seen yellow cukes before! Anyone know what they might be?

Perhaps these?

Cucumber, Lemon
HEIRLOOM. Lemon yellow cucumbers are tender and sweet, excellent for salads and pickling.
65 days. The 3-4” round and lemon yellow cucumbers are tender and sweet, excellent for salads and pickling. Normal-sized vines yield heavily and for a long time.
