We are growing our very own cucumbers this year and you know us too well – we wanted to share the progress to those growing cucumbers on their own as well. We will do our best to document the growth of our cucumbers using pictures, since that is the best way to learn. Look at our cucumber pictures to compare to your own.
Cucumber 4 Weeks Old Picture – We trimmed off the original sprout leaves in hope to force the plant to start really getting after it. The weather has been good still with great heat & sun, so we should be seeing this one really change soon. It has two full true leaves now.
Cucumber 2 Weeks Above Ground Picture – Finally some true leaves are coming in, and the cool thing is it is still very young. We have had great weather (as far as heat & sun) and we hope it will do these guys some good.
Cucumber Sprout’s 1st Day Picture – This is the first day our cucumbers graced us with it’s presence. The sprouts were adorable, and it looks like we got a little sprinkle happy while seeding them.
I will plant these babies Sunday, mothers day of course. We had greast success with Japanes Soyu last year.
the only good cucumber is a pickle.
deb – can’t wait to see. Ours got a jumpstart on life. 😉
ghost – man, fresh cucumber… tasty. mmm m mm
I look forward to seeing these grow. We have never tried cucumbers. Do they need much heat? It can be cool here.
Best,
Philip
Thank you so much for sharing! I am a first time gardener, and I haven’t been able to figure out which plants are my cucumbers and which are weeds. I really need to weed my patch, but I don’t want to pull out the wrong ones! I’ve been looking all over the internet for good seedling pictures as a comparison, and yours are so great. Thank you so much for the help!
I love the pix. They’re helpful. My Daughters and i just planted a bunch of cucu seeds in a strip garden in the backyard. We’ve never grown veggies before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Today is March 16th, 09.
I have this popping up in my garden now Sept. 26, 2009 where the cucumber plant died.
