What happens to us between death and our bodyâs resurection happens in âa twinkling of an eyeâ so we donât need to worry about a âsoul sleepâ or whatever. When our bodies die, our souls die.
Like most vegetables, cucumbers are tender and tastiest when harvested young before their seeds are fully developed. Slicing cucumber varieties are generally ready for harvest when about six to eight inches long; pickling types at three to five inches.
Either way, itâs important to train and support the cucumbers every few days because they tend to grow wild very quickly. In the greenhouse, we grow thousands of English long cucumbers and would expect to harvest about 20 to 25, 30-centimetre-long fruit per plant over a 12-week period.
