I have baby cucumbers. They are about a inch long. It shouldn't be long and I can't wait. I love to wash and slice and dip in ranch dressing. If I have a tomato to add that is even better. My mouth is watering just typing this. I planted two kinds and they are so close together I am thinking they will cross. Does anyone know if they will?

Probably, but unless you are saving seeds you will never know it. A cross does not effect the original plants only thier offspring.

I planted 3 or 4 kinds close together. As far as I know, crossing will not affect the cucumbers. Crossing affects the genes in the seed.

Now corn is different as you eat the seed, see?
