Hello all,

My children gave there father two cucumber seedlings for father's day. Actually, they had just sprouted then. I have adopted them and added them to the garden. However, I have no clue about growing cucumbers. The seedlings are fairly young and they each have a few leaves on them. They seem to be doing ok. I planted them in a pot. Is there anything in particular I need to know? I'll post pictures soon.

Alright. Pictured below are the cucumbers. Did I plant them too close together? I don't even know what type they are.

Thanks to all who responded. I later found out that I did not have cucumber plants. They are okra, which have grown to be 5 feet tall. I have posted a thread about them for those of you who would like to see them all grown up now.

I will remember to keep the information given about cucumbers, as I will be growing them next season.
