Armenian Cucumbers

HFF - a very local shot today, from my garden. We tried growing a new vegetable this year, the Armenian Cucumber (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_cucumber)

It's actually a type of melon, but tastes like cucumber, and, after a slow start, has started producing a lot of fruit that grow incredibly fast.

We have so many already, I think the ones in the photo are destined for a pickle jar!

Gavin Johnson replied to grobi358:

They like sun, warmth and water, but no special treatment. The young plants can easily snap at the base of the stem when transplanting, so next year I'll plant the seeds directly into the soil.

They look very prolific. We grow small green ones here, and by late summer the kitchen is redolent with dill pickling smells!
