    One of my cucumbers, a burpless, despite only being 6" high has two flowers and is throwing tendrills out. Do I need to pot it on, or can I still wait a while

    What sized pot is it in? To be honest you've sown it rather early as by the time you can plant it in it's final location it'll be huge and possible taken over your house - could be a talking point though!

    Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

    Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

        No need to pot it on until the rootball has got plenty of roots - looks like it can go a bit longer in that pot from the photo.

        If it was me I would (carefully!) knock it out of the pot to see what the rootball looks like.

          I would leave it in it's present pot for now. It's very early to be growing cucumbers. How much is it costing you to heat your greenhouse?

            It's a bit precocious, but a handsome specimen
