National Pickling cucumber
current status: done
years grown: 2012
notes: An open-pollinated pickling cucumber said to be a reliable producer of sweet 6in fruits. 52 days. We had poor germination rates on our 2012 crop, and then harvested only a few fruits before the plants all succumbed to disease.
