    Have you noticed how much more frustrating it is to grow underground crops which you can't see? Drives me mad!
    yes i know exactly where your coming from, i have to stop myself from pulling just one for a quick look to see how big it is!!!! HAVE TO BE PATIENT! Mich

                      If they are outdoor cucumbers they can be outside now. I've got some in the ground and some in big containers (because there's not enough veg plot left!
