Wow. Is all that from this year ??

Yes @charlotte I have 3 gherkin plants and 3 cucumber plants and we can't keep up with them, just wish my toms would ripen now!

Wow. Excuse my ignorance but what is the difference between a cucumber and a gherkin. I thought a gherkin was a pickled cucumber !!!!

Not sure, but the gherkin cucumber is a different variety - it's more rough skinned.

They were these I think: http://www.marshalls-seeds.co.uk/mobile/gherkin-seeds-partner-pid5087.html

Your way ahead !👌🏻 I'm weeks away 😕 nicely bottled by the way 👌🏻

Wow. I only have 2 plants out of 5 still alive and I am expecting them to die. My first attempt so I don't know what I have done wrong but will try again next year

My first attempt too, so I must be lucky! My courgettes are not doing so well however - it's all a big experiment isn't it 😊

Where as my courgettes are growing so well !!!
