Maybe they are sun scalded. Rig up a little tent over one to see if that helps.

better luck next year.

 

[Chic Rustler]

yeah, but my feed bill has been cut in half!

 

[lcertuche]

Use to be people didn't buy feed for critters. They just grew enough garden for everyone. What they didn't eat the critters did.

DH picked a jalapeno....one.

 

[Chic Rustler]

well we just finished rearranging things to make room for more jars. I counted over 70 jars. most of them were pickles. there were 10 jars of pickled okra and a couple tomatoes, but mostly pickles.

I don't think I'll plant cucumbers next year

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Wow - you probably won't need to plant cukes for a couple years, lol!

 

[lcertuche]

I never have luck with cucumbers. So far this year I got one horribly bitter cuke.
