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.
Cucumbers planted outdoors must be planted in warm soil after the last frost. You can plant second crop of cucumbers in mid to late summer. Plants prefer a nutrient-rich soil, so work compost into the soil before planting cucumbers. Seeds should be planted on their edges 1/2 to 1 inch (1.25 to 2.5 cm) deep.
