Cucamelon - Mexican Sour Gherkin

First time planting the cucamelons.

First time planting cucamelons and so far there are around 3-5 of them the size of a small grape and a few other tiny ones growing. Looking forward to seeing how many more will grown on the one plant we have. Only reason for 4 out of 5 stars is because this havest season is not over yet and we do not know how they will turn out. But for having an extremely wet spring in our area they're doing good so far.

I always have an issue growing Cucamelons, but that doesn't deter me from trying. Honestly I think it's more me than the seeds/plants that I have tried in the past. Last year I did manage to grow a few, but those were the last of my seeds. Cucamelons aren't a common plant, or seeds, in my area. So I ordered some for this season. I have nothing to report, as far as production goes so far. But, I had initially thought that I failed, yet again, at getting seeds to germinate & I finally have 2 little seedlings. This is my first year with MI Gardener seeds & based on reviews, and word of mouth in my gardening groups, I have high hopes. So far I am pleased at my germination rates, how quickly my seeds were delivered, & the care for customer service.

Germinated wonderfully

I love growing these but I used to hate growing these because when I bought my seed from Baker Creek very few of them sprouted they were very hard to get started. The seeds I got from MIGardner, germinated beautifully. This is the only place I'm going to buy my seeds from now on.
