| I too had a very good experience with this variety. The cucumbers had a very sweet flavor, unlike any others I've ever eaten. Very sweet, crisp and tender. The vines tend to stagger production rather than all coming in at once, so it makes a good eating cucumber for that reason. For pickles, you might want to try another variety. When they taste this good fresh, who needs pickles! |
