    Thanks Mark! I'll have another go with this one! Think I'll sacrifice a couple store bought cukes this time! Till I get the flavor right! Like Oskar said! It hurts to grow something only to have it become inedible! ☹️

    Yup! I also have a thorny one not doing as well. But by jeebers the thorny one likes to throw a stem over the path just waiting for me! Hahah

    Cukes are like shoes for me... Let me explain... You can never have too many, they always fit/grow, there are different styles/types for every occasion!

    Big day in the yards today! Mowed and put some weed mat down in my top garden. Put in a couple of climbing vine thingys... No idea what they are. They were cuttings gifted to me. My chard and radishes are doing great, the beets didn't sprout, so I put in some sugarloaf seedlings to flesh it out...

    Here is part of my blackberry! It's ginormous! With a volunteer nasturtium peeking out from underneath! Hehe @Mark I have an iPhone, so I use the podcast app to listen to my podcasts. I have no idea about android... To think I studied IT 2o+ years ago! Shame on me not keeping up with technology!

    View into the greenhouse: Had a big tidy up, planted out a heap of stuff. I have spaghetti squash, corn, and a heap of Roma tomatoes still to plant out. I ordered a bunch of grow bags off eBay the other day, so will do another plant next weekend. I'm running out of compost! Heheh

    Yeah, I'm super happy with the greenhouse! It was a $60 eBay special! Same quality plastic as the bunnings ones! And they sell the cover separately if I need to replace it! You can't really see, but I have lined that left side with chookwire to train my cukes up! And I stole the bakers rack up...

    How fascinating Mark! Thank you for finding out for me! The grow bags were $20 ea. not super cheap, but quite reasonable, considering they were delivered to my door! They are some sort of super heavy duty felt type stuff, very well made! And the yes the Italian tommies are the big sucker size...
