Poppy Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Hoddy I don't think it's just you. Except for one this week all those I have shop bought this year have been chewy. Still googling but haven't come up with the reason yet; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoddy Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 Thanks Poppy and nopmoss for trying to help. We've now taken all the existing cucumbers off and to hope for better things with the regrowth.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
