Cucumber - almost there?

2 of my cucumbers have reach some size but how to judge if it's time to harvest?

J shape cucumber. Cucumber suppose to be long and straight right?
     


Anybody have tips on how to see if cucumber is about time to be harvested?

  1. I have such bad luck with cucumbers - I don't even try. I think your cukes looks great though, and probably as you suspect - almost there!

  2. I don't have much experience harvesting cucumber, sorry can't help. But I think yours is not long before you can eat it cucumber with nasi lemak or acar.

  5. Malar, congrats on your harvesting! I bet they were delicious! I have to sow the seeds again, the snails got to the seedlings in just one day!

  6. Malar, Your cucumbers look kind of overweight. What have you been feeding them? When the cucumbers are over riped, they can be used for making soup. The Chinese call it 'Lo Wong Kua'.
