The past two years i've ended up with 0 cucs after starting with 15 plants. It's a serious battle with the cucumber beetles no matter how much i spray/kill/wash off. One of the downsides with gardening in a community garden - your neighbors problem is also your problem.

I'll try the County Fair variety.
