Sophie the cucumber seed is Cucumber Jogger F1 hybrid. I have potted 3 of them into large black plastic pots with a couple of tall bamboos in each pot - in the not so cold GH. We have bought some fleece but I haven't put it in place yet - do I actually drape it over the plants - the roof of the GH is too high for me to reach to the top of it?
Thanks Sophie, that is reassuring to know - it would be a pity to cosset & nurture the plants only to find that the cucumbers don't taste very nice. Looking forward to them maturing ( only 3 or 4 leaves on the plants so far). Thanks for the fleece advice.
