update on my cucumbers!! i’ve been growing them in their separate containers for about a week and a half now, and the one in water is growing much faster than the ones in the dirt. but overall they are doing pretty well! i’m very excited! they smell good too

How did you start the one in water

### Mushroom commented on 2023-07-28

i put them in a wet paper towel for a couple days and that one had longer roots than the others, so i decided to experiment and put it in water. i propped it up in the glass and the roots grew fast
