My mom says: Some cucumbers are not picked until they grow too big. They are so big that they turn yellow. But they will be the seeds of new cucumber plants. I don't know how exactly this process is. But it was interesting to know. Here I compared the size of two cucumbers🥒🌱...

Be careful! Once a cucumber has yellowed it signals to the plant that it’s time to die! I would only do this at the end of the season after you picked all of the eating ones!

Oh, really? I didn't know, thank you for telling me. My mother planted these cucumbers. She probably knows

Not exactly true, you can harvest almost yellow cucumbers and leave them on a sunny spot next to a window and they will turn yellow and the plant will be alright if the conditions are still good :)
