3 more...


I just picked this three around 4:30 pm Central time. The top cucumber in this photo is a lot smaller around than the rest. I'm not certain why that is but my only guess is that it was picked from the back side of the EarthBox that received the least amount of sun. I have no clue if that's the case but that's my guess when I compare it to the rest that were shorter but bigger around. So that's a total of 8 cucumbers picked in a matter of 4 days.

Fresh pickings...

I picked my first cucumber on Saturday but it was eaten by myself, my wife, my folks and my in-laws who were down from Lincoln, Nebraska for the day before I could snap a picture.
The first picture is of 2 more that I picked on Sunday.


These next 2 I picked first thing this morning.

Day 45 - Cucumbers!!!

Take a look at these pictures:


Be sure to check the others I've posted. I've got 3 cucumbers of significant size with several more on the way. And all it's taken is a daily watering. I'm definitely sold on the EarthBox and can't wait to get another one going for next year.

It's been a few days since I last posted anything but check out these pictures. Please feel free to advise me on this. I know I need to get a trellis of some kind.
