cucumbers - where are the females?

lush cucumber plantsThey were planted late but the cucumbers are now growing like wildfire. There are four plants in this bed and I fear they will be taking over the garage soon. I have to keep moving them off the walkway because we keep stepping on them. The only problem is that I have lots of male blossoms but no females yet.

  • This post was written a few days ago. The plants are now even larger and have finally started producing female blossoms. Since we’re at the end of July I won’t expect to harvest anything until early September.

    Maybe I’ll be lucky & see some. Cucumbers & I are very close friends.
