003- A bit too seedy, but a bit more "white fleshed" and sweeter than most white types. Icebox size at about 5 lbs, excellent flavor and texture, Brix of 14. A step in the right direction, these are crosses/selections from a grex of the 8 white fleshed varieties in my collection. All have thin rinds with the "E" or exploding gene. Tap them just the right way and they will litterally bust in two at the center.

owdery Mildew Tolerant white cucumber lines. No bitter flavor and no tough skin, survived and produced through the worst squash vine borer and striped cucumber beetle infestation we have ever had, very prolific. While having been grown on plastic the plants which are in the stand this photo was taken in have not received any fertilizer, compost, or nutrients whatsoever and no irrigation. Many of our projects focus on developing new varieties adapted to extreme survival situations.
