Grrrr.....I reaaaaaaaalllly do not want to use Facebook. I have a profile but never use it.
That could be true about the cukes if you’re using older heirloom varieties. My two favorites are ‘Diva’ and ‘Summer Dance’ and they only produce female flowers and are self pollinating, so no bitterness. They call it, ‘gynoecious, parthenocarphic.’
Sister cukes are doin’ it for themselves, LOL!
