I just started growing cucumbers, but I'm really worried because they haven't even sprouted yet! This is my first time gardening. Can anyone give me some tips on how to keep them alive and thriving?

First off, are your cucumbers planted in containers or directly in the ground? Also, keep an eye on the temperature over the next few months because that can really affect their growth. And what variety of cucumber are you growing? Knowing that can help you get more tailored advice!
When it comes to picking your cucumbers, timing is everything! Try to pick them early in the morning before it gets hot, as this can really improve their taste. If you wait until the afternoon heat, they might turn out bitter!
Thanks for the tip!
Have you considered using Bt spray? It's a great solution for pest control and helped me a lot in my garden! Definitely look it up.
Thanks so much!
They're in a container and the weather is going to cool down soon. I’m not even sure what variety I have; I just took a seed from a cucumber. Did I mess that up?
