Now only Cross Country is grown. This type satifies my requirements, and Cross Country is a prolific producer. There are total of seven plants in three hills about 25 inches apart.

More cucumbers picked today. Downy mildew has made its appearance, facilitated by wet weather, keeping the foliage damp. The cucumbers that hang from the trellis are completely green, and the ones lying on the ground have a yellow underside. This is a case for using a trellis if appearance is an issue.

Another cucumber picking today. Downy mildew has appeared, since we have had a bit of rain almost everyday. This is ideal conditions for the fungus to flourish.
