Lots of cucumbers: Part 2
When cucumbers start cucumbering, they don't mess about!
We got a whole lot of them ripening within a few days of each other. I think ~16 cucumbers over about 4 days.
This was the second batch of 11 cucumbers being harvested, along with having to fix up the vine, which had fallen down in the wind because of the weight of the cucumbers.
It also shows the pickles that I made, or attempted to make. I wanted to try to make lacto-fermented pickles (fermented over a few days in a salt brine). The recipe I had said to let them ferment for 5-7 days. I think with the warm temperatures we were having, I should have stopped it at 3-4 days. I lost the lot to a mould outbreak around day 6. 😢
Oh well, I'll grow more and try again. I'll also make sure I plant a lot of vines next season so that I can pick lots of smaller ones for pickling, rather than having to chop up larger ones. It was a good learning experience though.
