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.
You can start cucumber seeds indoors four to six weeks before the last spring frost in your area. Plant the seeds 1 inch deep in seed starter mix. If you use biodegradable pots, you can set the entire pot into the soil outdoors and avoid disturbing plant roots.
