Are there any Armenian cucumber varieties that get larger than usual? The usual is pretty large. So, I thought I'd ask, as I'm growing Armenian cucumbers for the first time (Metki Dark Green Serpent melon), this year, and I like it a lot (and I like giant stuff—so, I thought I'd see if there are even bigger ones). Mine haven't been getting dark green, though (maybe I haven't been letting them get old enough).

Here are some of the reasons I like it a lot:

• It's early (earlier than my summer squash and okra, which were earlier than everything besides spring crops like radishes and snow peas)
• They get bigger than fully grown zucchini
• They're very refreshing, and taste good whether they're small or huge.
• They seem to hold a lot of water
• They're a lot easier to grow in my garden than regular cucumbers
• They seem surprise and/or impress people
• They're great on sandwiches
• They're prolific (especially with regard to volume/weight of the total harvest)
• They have a lot of flowers.
• They keep for at least a nice amount of time in the refrigerator, if not a long time
