Could you please ask Bonnie Plants why would cucumbers be yellow? We have a ground garden box. Could it be sun or too much water?

Hi, Kara. Here is Sidney’s response: This could be from a lack of nutrition as well as too much water.
I hope that’s helpful.

If you’d like us to come shoot a segment, please send information about what we could feature to mjohns@alfafarmers.org. We’re already working on segments for season 6 so just have patience with us. It sometimes takes us a while to get out to things. But all that means is there are so many great things happening in the state that it’s tough for us to get around to all of them!
