Thanks; I'll look that one up for next year.
My Armenians are very crunchy with much fewer seeds than normal and long....... very long lol. I am also looking for other cukes with fewer seeds.
I am growing a variety called "National Pickling Cucumber" and they have a nice ratio. They are also about the right size to fit whole in a jar. Pretty prolific, too.
