I’ve never heard of that variety but they sound yummy! It’s actually nice to get some later in the season because the other, traditional cukes seem to fizzle out late summer. We’ve been eating so many this year…mostly just raw with a little ranch dressing, or in salads. I also make a lot of “quickles” as our family calls them. Cukes, onions, sometimes tomatoes in a vinaigrette.
What’s your favorite way to eat ‘em?

I just spent 4 days working at the Minnesota State Fair, listening to dozens of people from Minnesota & surrounding states telling us about "strange vegetable tales." Like cucumbers now, but not earlier (early heat! wimpy male flowers closed prematurely, so no fertilization), pumpkin, zucchini & other squash vines with little or no fruit (same story), small late tomatoes (the early ones aborted due to drought - now we got some rain), apple trees with little fruit (late freeze got some of the buds)...
I have been doing this for 20 years, and these are the worst weather-related Veggie Tales I ever remember.

Just a reminder to all nature lovers - if you have valued trees and shrubs in your yard, be sure to give them a deep, weekly drink of water (at the drip line) if we don't get rain. Continue until the soil freezes, or if your in a more temperate zone, until Thanksgiving.

Heading out to pick my tomatoes before the squirrels use more of them to play basketball!
