Day 56
These are pics taken from the night after pollinating. Today I went in to look and the flowers on the cukes are starting to wilt and die. Apparently this is a sign that the pollination worked
I'm sure crossing my fingers.
I'm planning on cleaning out my reservoir tonight and filling it with fresh filtered water.. give my cukes some fresh water to soak up
another female flower starting on the vine that I didn't prune. Hmm.. maybe it was just waiting for their time to come to start flowering, and not the pruning at all?

Well guys I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but my cucumber plant is headed very down hill 
... my newly formed and pollinated female flowers turned black and shriveled up. The leaves of the plant have started to turn yellow with some brown areas.
I believe due to the plant finally producing female flowers, it was in need of much more nitrogen. Like I said in the beginning of this grow, I wasn't planning on putting money into it. So.. I have let my cucumber plant go
It was a great experience, and I will be trying to grow something else in my dwc soon. Thanks for all the thread subscribers!! You guys are all amazing!!!
