Grace that looks delicious! My cucumbers are slow this year, but my dad shared one of his with us and we had it last night. I like to soak mine in apple cider vinegar. So yummy! I wish I had another one! Enjoy your cucumber.

Smoke is crazy bad. I wake up with a headache most days.
Mix a Tablespoon of Epsom salts in a gallon of water the cucumbers love it.
And Cucs need lots of water as you know the are 97% water.

Grace, I will have to try the tomatoes. We using just do the cucumbers and red onions. But the tomatoes sound good! I have so many green tomatoes that I’m waiting to turn red. Once they do I’ll have to try it.
