we haven't grown cucumbers here before. many years ago we grew them at our other place but i don't remember the "art" of it as that would be 30-40something years ago.
which brings me to the question of why one cucumber out of seven would be extremely bitter?
as it is sliced up and marinating in a mix of onion, mayo and apple cider vinegar i cannot tell which slices are going to zing me until that bite is committed, but i will eat them anyways. i don't mind them as much as Ma does. she won't eat it at all.
