    Hi

    Has anyone any idea why my telepathy cucumbers are healthy plants but the cucumbers are withering but my socrates are healthy and I have loads of healthy cucumbers growing? They are all in the same place in the conservatory and fed and watered the same.

    Thanks

    Sam

    I think over watering, maybe one variety is not as fussy as the other one and can take more water

    One's a mini I think the socrates ? I have grown before get lots of them once they start

    I say water less is best for now while they are still young plants , plus maybe a bit of shade mid day if we have any sun ?? I wish

    Thanks Spruce, will cut back on the watering. Really pleased I've actually got some this year as they all failed miserably last year.
