They are crisp and took the heat perfectly here in Tucson, AZ. Keep working on this variety Jay; it's a keeper.

The taste is more like a zucchini if picked too young, the taste is more like a melon rind if picked too late, and the taste is like a watery refreshing cucumber when picked at mid-age.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12461600014446853297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1414505450356893387.post-13345593449436210282012-06-30T07:33:48.253-07:002012-06-30T07:33:48.253-07:00Do they taste like the cucumbers you typically see...Do they taste like the cucumbers you typically see here?Rebecca and Tuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04076032102958973386noreply@blogger.com
