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.
The largest cucumber fell from the plant in August and soon started to turn yellow and decomposed. It measured a whopping 47 inches in a straight line from top to bottom or 50 inches if you included its curve. The second vegetable already measures 43 inches and is still growing slowly.
