Where do you buy seeds for Sweet Success and Diva? Also, recommendations on a good pickling cuke that is very productive? I got zero production from my spring crop. Pollination and disease isnt a big issue. I seem to have plenty of pollinators for my armenian cuke and its dry enough diseases arent an issue. So far this year, Ive managed to avoid squash and cucumber bugs. I got a few juveniles but they disappeared with a dusting of diatomaceous earth. My regular cucmber vines still look healthy but just male flowers, no females. I gave them a spot with some afternoon shade but I think it delayed them until it was too hot.
I can plant fall cukes in August, which I think is better in AZ, anyway. Good germination but cooler weather during the productive period.
