 Burpless Tasty Green I've been growing this outside and all looks well, lots of flowers and small cucs. But when do I know they are ripe for picking, it suggests that you "pick the fruit before full sized" what is full sized, I've got one that's about 8 inch now but still prickly - should I pick it?      |

| I have just read that the fruits are not giants and to cut them at about 9 inches long.

| I grow this one and normally cut them about 8/9". Mine are just at the six leaf stage and they're inside! Last edited by JennieAtkinson; 13-07-2006 at 03:04 PM. |

| I grow them and cut them from 6 inches up to 9 inches long depending upon how big they are when I want one. Dont worrit about the prickles, just rub them off.
