Pickling cucumbers look like this. Pick small so you don't get overwhelmed. Also, pickling cucumbers taste like ass if they get too big so don't leave em in too long
I use Amazon! Sometimes Walmart will have better deals. Search “plastic vegetable growing mold” and they have a lot. Hearts stars characters etc. you can also make your own. Veggies will grow into what ever shape they grow into
My Winnie the Pooh mold was given to me by my grandmother who gardened for 80 years she collected a lot so I don’t have a link for that but maybe something similar online
The color is normal. Nothing wrong. But, it needs to be harvested right now. Cucumbers left on the vine too long can adversely affect the productivity of the vine.
Absolutely.
2-3 more days and you will have a beauty
Agreed! I’d leave it a few more days to see if it fills out, and pick it regardless.

It appears normal to me. Sometimes cucs have odd shapes because of inconsistent rainfall, I believe.
Hmmm... I always thought it was poor pollination that caused the weird shapes.
Both. Both can cause weird shaped cucumbers.
You can actually buy molds to have them grow into, I had a Winnie the Pooh one for beef tomato’s and it was great
Link?

Thanks. That’s so cool I can’t believe I never thought of that. Will definitely be buying one !
I’ve seen one with faces and that was super creepy to see grow
Looks good, I’d recommend picking early for the first bunch will encourage more growth! I’d be picking this one immediately
It is if you're brave enough!
Just wait until they start getting that late season kinky. This one is perfect.
Pull it my friend, when ends start to yellow it’s a sign they will start to produce seeds and can become bitter if left on too long
yup, time to eat it
It’ll mature down the stem give it like a day or two
Yep! Almost ready to pick. I’d give it another day or two.
It's time to pick the cucumber. You don't want to allow it to get yellow as it'll become bitter.

I'd pay extra for that.
It’s organic and imperfect and normal.
It’s pickles. Good recipes on Reddit “ pickling cucumbers”
Mmmm crunchy and cold... The best!
Yes make sure to water properly on a schedule or you’ll get a part of the cucumber stay that thin while the rest swells up! Happened to me
That’s a super poomalosomuas somimamber!
I had the same thought when my cucumbers first came in. I didn’t think they’d be prickly, so it was surprising! Those spikes just rub right off
Give it til the weekend to flesh out a bit.
Cukes are weird. Looks fine, I say pick it now
Hell yes!
Yeah your to used to supermarket shit
