I'm growing a dozen heirloom varieties and so far, only one (speckled roman) is showing of BER on a couple fruit. Your cukes look great as well.Thomas Generaziohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03536611327617373090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-72827840492650705202014-07-14T20:45:57.461+01:002014-07-14T20:45:57.461+01:00Martyn has posted about our tomato problems and wi...Martyn has posted about our tomato problems and will publish on his blog tomorrow.

BER is such a disappointment, especially when it hits that highly anticipated first ripe tomato of the season.

Never got a one because by the time they were ripe, the rot had spread up the whole length of the insides.

They are just so clean and perfect. I'm still waiting on my cukes, but it shouldn't be long. I need to thin out the dill that is right next to them. I think it is shading them too much.
