comparison





I ate my first slicer on June 15th.   I must have done something right with my cucumbers.  I know they were out too early as they had to be covered three times this spring.  I put pails over them and then wrapped the pail in blankets.  Even with that some of the leaves got touched.  I have thank my neighbor for supplying the ladder, Wilda for talking about this idea for her flowers to grow on and Tallan for helping me take it from my neighbors back to my house.  Also thanks to my classmate Connie for her comments about tying the cucumbers with soft cloth so the ties don't cut through the vines.  My nephew thinks it will cover the entire ladder. But the cucumbers are easy to find and clean when you pick them.
